I want to enable the microphone for the 2-in-1 audio port in a Clevo NP50HJ. On this journey I stumbled onto a piece of ArchWiki which refers a certain linux-docs package’s file. I can’t find this package
Details
Got to this piece of ArchWiki*:
[…] you could put the following line into your
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
:
options snd_hda_intel index=0 model=*your_model_setting*
For complete list of options to put in
your_model_setting
, see […] or its source located at/usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/Documentation/....
(provided by the linux-docs* package)
No idea what to put in my model_setting. I don’t have a Documentation folder at that location
~> ls /usr/lib/modules/$(uname --kernel-release)/build | grep --ignore-case doc
exit 1
So I want to install the mentioned linux-docs package. linux-docs link seems legit, takes me to an Arch package definition (albeit for kernel 5.15, I’m rolling with 5.13), but I can’t find that package
~> pamac info linux-docs
Error: target not found: linux-docs
exit 1
~> pacman --sync --search --quiet doc | grep linux
linuxdoc-tools
My end goal is to enable the microphone for the 2-in-1 audio port for a Clevo NP50HJ, but I would also like to understand what’s going on, because it seems I don’t have a good grasp of Manjaro documentation and how it’s handled, nor of what I can do with an Arch repositories’ package?
