 Posted: Fri Feb 23, 2018 12:29 am Post subject: Microphone Dell XPS 15 9550 |
 |
|
I've been using gentoo on my machine from the time I bought it, and I almost couldn't be happier.
The external microphone does not work, and I had to buy an USB adapter, which works but the result is low quality.
From all I've seen until today, people only recommend buying the adapter, but today I saw the following link:
http://wiki.yobi.be/wiki/Laptop_Dell_XPS_15
Which seems to suggest they have it working. Do I have to update my kernel? Do I have to remove the audio drivers from the kernel and install as an external module?
Help me please, I'm tired of using this adapter, or not using it and not having a microphone.

We might not be able to solve my problem, but I think yours should be solvable, that does not happen to me. What kernel are you using? |

I can't look into it now, I booted my gaming windows by mistake, it started a mandatory update that removed or reordered the partitions, which ruined my boot completely.
I will look into it when I solve this problem, sorry.  |
