Use something like aumix or kmixer to make sure that the microphone level is turned up fully and also that the "R" Record indicator is set for the microphone. On a side note, I have a c-media sound card built into ASUS motherboard here are my notes for that weirdo: - Microphone is only enabled under special circumstances due to the necessity for multiple speaker configurations - Use the "cmictl -a OFF" or gcmictl program as root to change the "SPDIF-in phase" setting from Inverse to Normal. - Use the baudline program as a test of the input channel on: dev/audio microphone or line etc. Good luck, Anthony Tekatch http://www.unihedron.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
