Realtek HD Audio Driver for Ubuntu 12.04?
- by Shifat Taushif
I recently switched to Ubuntu 12.04 on my Toshiba laptop.
I haven't had any issues except for one.
I realized that there is a red light coming out of my earphone jack. It's something like this: http://i.stack.imgur.com/gokuH.jpg
I looked in the folder that Toshiba created for installing drivers , then I found out that they had installed this driver for my sound card :
Realtek HD Audio Driver v6.0.1.5689_withMaxxAudio_Compal(20080908)
I'm guessing that the sound card supports Optical Audio Output.
I also found out that when I mute the speakers, the light goes away. But when I unmute it, it comes back.
I don't really mind having it but it drains my battery.
So, is there a Ubuntu version for my sound card driver?
Thanks in advance.
