Hello there, I've been trying to make my microphone to work with skype, so i've disable "PulseAudio stupidity" on mcc (mandriva 2009). Therefor I can't setup my microphone, i use Sound Recorder to test the micro but i can't record any sound... here is my amixer console:

First I would try to open alsamixer and unmute anything that is muted. Next you may need to add some options to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base (Not sure if that is correct for mandriva)

Next look at the ALSA-Configuration.txt for your kernel, here is an example;
http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Docum...figuration.txt
Next it says there to check out HD-Audio-Models.txt:
http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Docum...dio-Models.txt

Next lspci, I think yours is a ALC888, by the board in your sig:
so I would try something like;
Code:

options snd-hda-intel model=6stack-dig" >> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
