Hello. This is my first thread ever because I always could find a solution, but not now.

Like in the topic. No audio devices, no camera. Can anybody help me with this problem ?

:)..Welcome!..:)
Have you tried using ear buds?
 
Yeah. That is why I bought the laptop, to use it like a walkman...Thanks for the perfect solution, but I am looking for the less perfect one.
 
I have the same computer, ( 1 rev newer ), My audio and camera work fine.

I did have to install an application called 'cheese' in order for the video camera to work.

No cheese on deepin. The problem is that any of apps don't see camera or audio inputs or outputs.

I don't see your camera listed as a device.
Do you have an audio jack on your laptop?
Mine doesn't have an audio jack, I had to use a USB to 3.5mm adapter.
I also have some USB speakers that work pretty good.

I don't know if you need debian, but you might try a more mainstream distro.
 
No audio jack but two speakers build in. I tried Ubuntu...problems with screen. Tried with Zorin - problems with screen.
I have Deepin on 7 computers without any problems. Only with the new one.
 
I tried in App store, tried in synaptic, and tried from terminal. Nothing.
 
But in Deepin I have a camera software, and it doesn't see the camera itself.
 
In Alsa I see DEFAULT sound card...whathever it is, I can "enter device name" but I have no idea what should I write.
 
Have a look at snap applications
 
Im just went looking myself....it appears they do not support deepin
 
@Torfbud :- Welcome to Linux.org.

Um.....OK. What output d'you get from

Code:
lspci

...and

Code:
lsusb

Need both, TBH, since some built-in webcams are on the PCIe bus, whereas others are on the USB root hub. You never quite know how manufacturers have wired things up.

The cam should be usable via the UVC kernel module......that's if it's supported, that is (UVC is a separate project to the kernel itself, even though it's been IN the kernel for many years). As for the audio, heh; it's a bit of a rat's nest, despite the advances with PulseAudio (and latterly Pipewire) over the years. They still run on top of ALSA, when all's said & done. Misconfigurations here are common, and not always easy to spot.

Me, I'm thinking it may be a firmware issue with the cam. Others will know more about checking this stuff; the way we do it under Puppy Linux probably won't work for a mainstream distro.


Mike. ;)
