Codec + Mixer: IDT 92HD71B7X - STAC92xx Analog sound device not working on Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop in Ubuntu 9.04
I have purchased a new Laptop Dell inspiron 1545 and installed ubuntu 9.04 for my regular use. I am very much impressed by Ubuntu installation & fond of it. But I am unable to play any music or sound on ubuntu, whereas it is working on Windows XP partition very well. At the same time, I am unable to start webcam. I am new to ubuntu & don't know the command line parameters to set right the above problems. I have searched the dell website & surprised to note that they have not any support note or driver for linux or ubuntu for inspiron 1545, all drivers are for windows vista or windows xp. It is very regrettable for such a reputed computer manufacturer that they are not supporting openware or linux & promoting only proprietary softwares.
I have installed in sound & video section, the following programmes:
ALSA Mixer, Alsamixergui, Audacity, Dragon Player, Elisa Media Center, GNOME ALSA Mixer, Sound Recorder
Please guide me to run sound & webcam on ubuntu on my above laptop.
With Regards....
