I currently have the same issue on a Laptop with Arch Linux whereas I don't experience this on my Gentoo Desktop machine. Would be great if someone could point me in the right direction. Many thanks.

Well I'm not sure if you can achieve this sort of censorship with a proxy server, but might be possible. Nevertheless white-listing will be hard work. I don't know if privoxy[1] is able to white-list, but I would give it a try and find out. This post [2] looks promising if you can blacklist everything in the first run (but don't know how) and then white list just the domains you want. > Thanks, > > Joost Best regards, Thomas [1] http://www.privoxy.org/ [2] http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/11277/how-to-whitelist-a-url-site-in-privoxy signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Hello, if you use GNOME try gnome-volume-control and play with the settings. For me works a configuration with Capture (Tab Recording) switched on and in the upper third and in Options I need to define the Input Source (probably you want need that). Best wishes Thomas
