Thread: MIC Not Working - Feel like I've tried every thread here

hi,

i've had major problem getting mic work pulseaudio. after looking around while see i'm not one.

have run whole lot of suggested commands - copied sorts of lines /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf - upped sorts of volume controls alsamixer or pulseaudio - uninstalled , reinstalled - upgraded and..

nothing works

messed around had reinstall ubuntu again (10.04)

have been using linux on-and-off while have never been kind of person remember these long commands...so please consider me newbie (as feel 1 @ moment)

i'm sure if there's out there able they'll need bit of info machine.

after fresh install - please feel free take step-by-step upgrades...commands...the lot
