Was loading 2011.90 into a Toshiba Satellite L745-54210 and ran into a microphone problem.

In looking at http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php/topic,96609.msg816334.html#msg816334
I thought I might have found a solution.

But when I tried to edit the /etc/modprobe.conf and reboot, it seems Skype could find any mic or speakers.

Currently my modprobe look like this:

install scsi_hostadapter /sbin/modprobe ahci; /sbin/modprobe ata_piix; /bin/true
install usb-interface /sbin/modprobe ehci_hcd; /bin/true
alias wlan0 rtl8192ce
alias eth0 atl1c
alias sound-slot-0 snd_hda_intel
options snd-ac97-codec power_save=1

And the results from lspci look like this:

I just returned the machine to it's owner.  I setup PCLinuxOS for him, and showed the commands and interface.  I should talk with John within the next day and will Teamview with him to do the suggested CLI.

cat /proc/asound/card0/codec* | grep Codec

Thank you for helping, I know John as a new user will enjoy fully using his Toshiba.  He was very impressed with PCLinuxOS and was excited to give it a try.  I got him on a dual boot, so he can test it fully before converting (if he wishes) to straight PCLinuxOS.
