That kind of solution worked for me with Skype. I used
either kmix or kamix (forget which), so one of those
has the microphone boost option.

Try using gamix instead of kmix. If your sound card supports it, you will notice a push-button for "mike boost", that punches about 20db gain to the mike. I have not tried Skype yet, so can't help ya there...

Have you tried pulling at the slider(s) in YaST/hardware/sound/volume? I'm not sure about how those and the ones in KMix relate.
Do you have another PC that you could use for the other end - to verify that the problem is not at the other end?
I tried Skype a couple months ago from my SuSE 9.2 to a Windows box and got no complaints. Besides, I'm impressed how well it works - it was just like talking on a regular phone.

I'm trying to get Skype (Internet-telefony) working properly. Reception is fine, but my counterpartners hardly hear me. In Kmix MIC is at maximum and the red button switched on.

Does anyone have an advice how to enhance the volume of the microphone ?
Thanks,
