Re: microphone not recording

Hi.

I have been trying to get my mic work with Skype and Fedora 9. Skype only works when the device in "Sound In" is set to "ICH6,0", not the "Default Device (default)". The test call works, but I cannot hear my voice.
Don't know anything about Skype. Have read there are some problems in passing.

The default (System-> preferences-> Hardware-> sound-> Sound Capture) is set to ALSA. The default mixer is "Intel ICH6 (Alsa mixer)".

I tried to use the "Sound Recorder" tool to see if the mic was working, but when I try to use, the file is saved, but again no sound.

I think the problem could be in permission to the device. Which one?
/dev/dsp?
I don't think so. This is for OSS.

Thanks

Marcelo

Bring up alsamixer (either at a command line or via the menu) and hit F4. You should see the capture screen. Turn on the mic and boost and give the mic some volume. That should give you capture sound.
