Well, if you don't see any input sources to select, then you're cooked, because you must Capture something or other. How would "it" know to record your microphone rather than the line-in on your sound card, for instance? I have three choices as an input source, that I toggle with the arrows on my keyboard: Front Mic (which is the one I use, on the front of my machine, next to the headphone jack) Line (which must correspond to the line-in) and Mic (which is the other microphone jack in the back of my machine.) I don't know what you're seeing in alsamixer, but if all you're seeing is "Capture", that ain't gonna get it, 'cause you gotta capture something, as I say. Tell us what you see beside 'Capture' in alsamixer when you press F4. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
