"Raymond: your Clevo P180HMX are similar to Clevo P170HM" Yes, they are very similar systems: same ODM, same HM67 chipset, same cpu choices, same gpu choices (albeit 1 slot only), same bios vendor and flash-size, similar ports/sdxc/keyb/tpad/wcam/lan/wlan/bt. 4 so-dimms vs 3, 17.3" LCD (w/ optional 3D) vs 18.4", 2+1 raid0/1 bays vs 3+1 raid0/1/5, 2*usb2 vs 4*usb2, no eCard slot, 77WHr vs 89WHr, 4kg vs 6kg.
As far as the audio is concerned, cursory examination says they are very similar, both using ALC892, same number and type of onboard speakers, same number and type of onboard jacks, same style of 7.1 external output support. The only difference I noticed is that the P170HM says it has a 3-watt subwoofer, and I've heard mine has a 2-watt subwoofer. The post you mentioned from Nov'11 suggested that the work on supporting the P170HM was unfinished; does anybody know what the current status is for supporting the P170HM audio stack? Maybe we can piggyback off that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1236965 Title: pulseaudio does not recognize internal speakers [P180HMx, Realtek ALC892, Speaker, Internal] volume slider problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1236965/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
