Ubuntu

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 linux kernal 2.6.39-3-bb03 on my Asus U52F-BBG6 laptop and the sound works but only thru my internal speakers and I cant use my headphones that have a mic on them. well technically they are headsets. but can't get any sound out of them when i plug them into and cant record any sound from the mic even though they are pluged into the mic and headphone jacks. any idea why this is like this and how it can be fixed???
more specs to help if you need them.

googling Asus U52F-BBG6 sound ubuntu brought up this thread:

Linux Mint Forums • View topic - Sound not working on asus u52f bbg6 [SOLVED]

That is Linux Mint not BlackBuntu which is what Im using but I will try it if it doesn't work i will post here the new problem.

It's still the same sound system. Config files might be in slightly different locations, etc. But it's still Linux, and still ALSA.

ok
options snd-hda-intel model=auto probe_mask=1in alsa-base.conf fixes the problems plus did apt-get upgrade and restarted and sound is working on my headphones and my mic is working so thanks. I think it was add that line to the alsa base config file that fix the problem appreciate the help thanks.

oh by the way alsa-base.conf is located in /etc/modprobe.d/ on BlackBuntu so if anyone else needs to know that. Probibly the same as Mint and and other Ubuntu flavors.
