Hm. Is krec installed? Try that. You'll probably have to use kmix or
another mixer app to set the current record source to the microphone (or
line-in, or whatever) for recording to work properly. You could also
try "sox /dev/sound/dsp -t ossdsp -w -s outfile.wav" for a more
old-school approach.

I started to reply, and the phone line dropped.

Good thing someone beat you too it as your post was, shall we say, less
than helpful.
