DISCUSS about You have sound? Please enter and help LQ!

Discussing about problems with reccolect info about our sound devices

Sorry I had to modify the commands for more efficient. I make this thread for discuss and this one for info.

I am sorry to tell you but these commands doesnot show real information.
I just see with another motherboard with onboard chip VA1708S which is VIA.
But in Linux it appers as 10de:03f0 which is nvidia chip number MCP61.
Does means, Linux take a lot of diferents chips as nvidia, however they are VIA for example. If I am wrong, correct me.
So, if you know some command that tells us the exactly name of the audio chipset or the motherboard, I will edit the first post.

Yeah, he does:

Code:

[user@machine:~]:lspci | grep Audio

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)

[user@machine:~]:lspci -nn | grep Audio

00:1b.0 Audio device [0403]: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller [8086:27d8] (rev 01)

The second command produces the vendor and device id along with the description. Without the VID:DID, you don't really know what the hardware is.

I will check it here: http://www.pcidatabase.com and make a table.

Received on email from the OP, @ miros84 :
"" Have you got skype?
I mean another type of list, but i am afraid these commands
doesnot tell us everything I want.
Some chips are VIa, but Linux take them as nvidia.
So, I need another commands. ""

How about ' lshw ' ?

I may be wrong here, and I know I am risking being flamed as a hopeless noob, but all this tells us is that it is a MCP65. The other important thing can be got from

Code:

cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0|grep "Vendor Id"

which, in my case produces

Code:

Vendor Id: 0x14f15051

This is the number of a Conexant Hermosa 20561

I think you need to know both of these. I think lots of people have a MCP65 with Realtek, which might work (lucky people). MCP65 with Hermosa doesn't transmit sound over HDMI (unlucky me)

Alternatively if you are udev, I just discovered this

Code:

cat /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/vendor_name

and this

Code:

cat /sys/class/sound/hwC0D0/chip_name
