Make sure you don't have the mic muted. This messed me up a couple of times. Change it in alsamixer just to make sure the toggle isn't the opposite of what you think it should be. You may want to turn on the PCM function as well if the input is to low. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge

In KMix, input tab, ensure that the light beside Capture is lit as well as the one beside Mic. -- Pob hwyl / Best wishes Kevin Donnelly www.kyfieithu.co.uk - Meddalwedd Rhydd yn Gymraeg www.cymrux.org.uk - Linux Cymraeg ar un CD!
