Archived thread 465353 from Dell Ubuntu Support. Markdown source: Dell__Ubuntu_Support/thread_465353_Ubuntu_on_the_Dell_Inspiron_1501.md
I would just like to point out that redDEAD has made a brilliant blog on getting your dell inspiron 1501 to run ubuntu. The blog includes guides on how to install ubuntu, install drivers for all your hardware, getting bryl to work, getting wine to work, fixing various problems and so on.
Shoutouts to redDEAD :)
Hello everybody. I;m using Ubuntu 7.04 on Dell Inspiron 1501, and I have problem with my microphone. Audio out is working perfectly, but microphone is not active, and I have no idea how to make it active. Any ideas?
Sincerely, wanderlust

Sincerely, wanderlust Did you try ndiswrapper with the audiodrivers you got from dell? Here's a guide for getting wireless to work using ndiswrapper.. Not exactly the audiodriver but you should get the idea :)
