Webcams with built in microphones

aren't many webcams equipped with built-in microphones?
I have an ongoing annoyance with my Logitech Quickcam 3000 Pro. If I boot the computer with the cam plugged in (with SuSE and Mepis) I get a mixer with 1 slider for the USB microphone, and the regular sound card (Sound Blaster Live) does not have a mixer and does not work. I always have to remember to unplug the cam before rebooting. If I wait until the system is up and running before plugging in the cam, my sound card works and has its mixer. The kmix display then has two tabs, one for the USB mic and one for the sound card. Is there a solution that will let me leave the cam plugged in while rebooting and still have sound working? Thank you. Bryan **************************************** Powered by Mepis Linux 3.3.1 KDE 3.3.2 KMail 1.7.2 This is a Microsoft-free computer Bryan S.
