Hi all. I’m new to Linux and have encountered problems with the built-in microphone - it doesn’t work, and I can’t select it in the sound settings. After researching forums on the Internet, I found information that it is necessary to make changes to the kernel configuration and this could theoretically solve my problem.
- Plz, tell me how I can make changes to the kernel configuration?
- Or perhaps someone can tell me how to solve this problem in another way?
to enable the snd_pci_acp6x driver and it’s DMIC support in my kernel config:
CONFIG_SND_SOC=y
CONFIG_SND_SOC_AMD_ACP6x=y
CONFIG_SND_SOC_AMD_YC_MACH=y
