Realtek HD Audio Utility for Linux

fmr · 03-27-2011, 06:50 AM

Hi

I am running OpenSuSE 11.3 with KDE 4.4 and I'm enjoying every moment of it. I still haven't figured out how to do a few things that I did with Windows XP. One of them is to reconfigure or remap the audio jacks of my onboard Realtek HD Audio device. I have my speakers plugged into a line-out (green), and my earphones plugged into a line-in (blue). This works perfectly after I remap the blue jack to be a line-out. I did this in Windows XP using the control panel that came with the Realtek HD Audio driver.

Can someone suggest software that can do this on linux? Or is there a simple command to type...?

Kind regards
fmr

There is an utility called HDA-Analyzer; it may help you. Althougt I think changes made will be reset after restart.

I tried HDA-Analyzer according to http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/HDA_Analyzer, but when running it (as root), I get the following output:
