hi Gabriel. i just upgraded to 2.6.22.1 and gave your suggestions a try. well, guess what? it worked! my mic now works beautifully. thanks for posting your results. the only difference that i can see between our setups is that in the amixer "Capture" view, i don't have a "Digital" device. thanks again! -Nick ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
