Thanks!

It seems to be working now! The funny thing is I was there before, saw microphone in input category and pressed mute on and off. I think I even tried the slidebar before, which now solved the problem. It looks like I was simply being careless.

Hello My Lenovo laptop double boots using Salix and Windows. For some reason in Salix built-in microphone isn't detected, while in Windows there are no problems. Camera works fine in both OS. I have already checked pulseaudio to find some clues. I suppose I should see some mention on microphone in &...

I can get wireless working too by setting the value to ignore.

I reversed the configuration changes (#) as I noticed that I had trouble connecting with VPN. After I reversed them everything works like a wonder.

A million thanks!

Mimosa you're a genious! Problem solved! Setting that value to "ignore" was the thing.

I want to thank each one of you for helping me to solve this mystery!

I followed mimosa's instructions and managed to do it. The changes are still there after reboot. However, nothing changed. I can still get connected using dhcpcd so I'm fine at the moment.

Sorry for asking stupid unintelligent questions but am I just supposed to type this command in the terminal: /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/00-dhcp-client.conf ?

If so, nothing really happened.

I want to thank all of you who helped me to solve this problem. Even though things aren't exactly like they were before, I can easily connect now with dhcpcd. The connection is fast and stable, as it should be. I can happily live with this procedure, as it only takes some extra 30 seconds to connect...

Well, it is not as simple as I thought. I have to unplug the adapter first and put it back again in order to make it work. I tried rebooting Salix with adapter connected and it refused to connect using dhcpcd. I got this: soliciting a dhcpcd lease, soliciting an IPV6 router, probing for an IPv4ll ad...

Finally some progress! I have three usb holes in my laptop, one is for 3.0 I believe. I have mainly used 3.0, cause my latest usb adapter is supposed to work best that way. I had tried other holes too, but this time I decided to try running "sudo dhcpcd eth4" with my adapter in "norma...

So I typed ifconfig -a to make sure that eth4 is running and then I typed sudo dhcpcd -T eth4 I tried it several times. Not even once I got any connection, but the text output varied a bit The latest one was more or less like this eth4 soliciting a dhcp lease, soliciting an ipv6 router, probing for ...
