savageD i am not blaming your patches or anything, its just unlike usual issuing of alsamixer c-0 , i still get only master and capture option and not others.. now this happens when i apply your patches but even after reflashing the options are only limited to master and capture.. earlier when i used to issue alsamixer command without patches i used to get whole list of options including headphones and others p.s. Please let me know what iam missing out here to get those options back !
