HP tx2000 and snd-hda-intel

I can email the schematics I mentioned if anyone is interested

**************************************************************

Hello,

I have an HP Pavillion TX2000z.
This laptop has uses the snd-hda-intel and has the ALC861VD realtek
codec. 
The existing configuration for the codec does not support the tx2000
series laptops fully.

There are several configurations that have various levels of support.

If you specify for the model to use the existing hp model (made for the
tx1000 series) then:

1.Headphones Work
2.Speakers Work
3.Front Mic Works (the jack mic by the headphone jack)
4.The External Mics do not work (There are two mics at the top of the
laptop... I am guessing left and right for a stereo Mic)
5.It seems like there is something mapped to an input that does not
belong there. The simplest way to explain this is when I open audacity
and set it to monitor input that there is significant white noise coming
in. The Ext. Mics are not working so it can't come from there (as far as
I know) and I have nothing plugged into the front Mic. I cannot find any
way to mute this noise.
