Question Internal Microphone at Lenovo Ideapad S400 laptop

Well, I installed Slackware on my notebook, and I'm just finishing the details. The only hardware that didn't worked was the internal mic, which I used before in windows for recording university classes, or Skype.
I don't know exactly what is going on, looks like it wasn't detected at all. When I plug a mic on the p2 (duplex) jack it works. Just the internal mic isn't working. Alsaconfig does not exist anymore, isn't it? What can I do?

After I installed Slackware I discovered that the columns in the alsamixer are muted by default.
I can't guarntee this will work but it's worth a try.

Open your terminal and type "alsamixer" Use the right and left arrow to highlight each column.
If you see {mm} at the bottom of the column it's muted. To unmute it type "m" (the lowercase m)

Raise up the pcm, master and mic all the way.

We also have a Android forum.

Hope that helps.

Your Lenovo is a laptop not a Tablet right?

I'm wondering becuase:

I have a Lenovo Tablet (S6000) and I would like to install Slackware on my tablet as well to gain more control over it.

Thanks in advance-
