Hi list,

oohhh, what a blunder. I did it again, bought an HP apparatus although
I'd sworn never to buy HP (being a pseudo suporter of OSS only) again..

But, sigh, it was very good offer. My elderly mother (74) is going to
keep closer contact with freinds using this modern thing called E-mail.

It had MS Vista on it - for about 4 minutes - and then OpenSuSE10.2
clean. Works with wireless (after a little fiddling), works with 1280x800
screen (after a lot of fiddling and searching this list, thanks!)

Only the microphone input, needed with Skype, doesn't work.

Any good hints, what info shall I provide?

At the risk of sounding obvious, have you enabled the microphone in
the mixer applet? Mine was disabled by default.

Hi

- Eh, mixer applet?
- I fired up a KDE app called Kmix. In that I get two tabs, one output and one
input. There's a mic input, the radiobutton i s red. When I click it, it
becomes pink (sort of), not green. I push the vertical slider to the top.

Still no sound.

Does this help?

Kmix is one of the apps. I'm don't have my laptop right now so I can't
remember how to get to the other one but it should be in the
multimedia apps group (sound controls or something like that). It's
odd that the X goes pink, though. Mine goes away and I then have mic
input. Sorry I can't be of more help. Maybe it's an HP thing. I'm
using a Dell Inspiron 5160.
