Hi,

I recently installed Ubuntu on my PC.
The install went OK, but now I want to get it a step further and check if
I can replace all Wxp apps I currently use.

I want to use a SIP softphone with a GN-Netcom GN-8110 USB digital audio
adapter.

As I am new to Linux, I would like to ask some help in this group.

I would like to get the USB headset up and running,
be able to send normal audio to my PC soundcard,
and send my phone conversation to the USB headset.
Can anyone here help me with this

If the Headset is supported, all you need is to plug it in,
anything else should be handled automatically for you.

Good luck

How can I choose to send audio do the headset instead of the soundcard ?
