I downloaded and installed Ubuntu 9.04 Netbook Remix on my Asus Eee PC 900 on 4/21 and installed any available updates. I did not change any module settings or do anything to ALSA. I performed the following steps to get my built-in microphone to work.
- I right-clicked on the speaker icon on the panel and opened the volume control. - I opened the Preferences and enabled Capture, Front Mic, Front Mic Boost, and Input Source. - I set Front Mic to 100% (muted) and Front Mic Boost to 33% (unmuted) on the Playback tab. - I set Capture to 80% (unmuted, capture) on the Recording tab. - I chose Front Mic as the Input Source on the Options tab. I'm not suggesting that the microphone works perfectly after performing these steps, but they made it possible for me to hear my own voice played back to me during a Skype test call. I hope this helps someone else.
