Re: USB headset, how to get it working ?

[ Using USB Headset ]

Using the Ekiga softphone, it works!!!! :-)
As I am used to having an USB plugin/removal sound in Windows,

AFAIR Fedora Core does pop something up on such events.

Personally dislike this stuff, I am sure I know that I just
plugged in something. If in doubt about functionality a quick
'dmesg' should show if the wonders of hotplug worked as designed?

I supposed Linux did not recognise the USB heaset and I needed to load a
driver.
It seems Linux took a big step forward in HW support comparing with a few
years back when I tried redhat linux, and went back to Windows
because I found it too difficult to use-finetune.
Kubuntu seems to do a good job now,
I think I'm going to keek using it this time.

Glad to hear things worked for you. I can't remember much
problems with hardware, though I admit to just order stuff I know
beforehand it's supported.

Welcome to the group!
