If it is, in fact, an ALC883, then check out the posting I did on Linux
Brain Dump. It was for an ALC888 (and for Fedora 7), but I'll bet the
process is very similar - download the drivers from Realtek and install
them.

I just got a new PC, with an ALC883 codec on the MoBo. I downloaded the 
Realtek driver and after compiling/installing it worked. The driver 
supplied on the CD didn't work (too old I think). It's an Asus P5K MoBo 
B.T.W.

I also tried 10.3Beta3 on it, and then it works 'out of the box'.
P.S. anyone knows if the detection of the channels works ? What I mean 
is with Windows XP one can insert a jack-plug and the system asks what 
channel it is supposed to be.
