Hello all, If you have a SB Live 5.1 card, could you please do an experiment for me? Could you record something via line-in and see if you get both channels? When I do this, I get only the right channel. Left channel is muted, and tweaking various things via alsamixer is not helping. I've found one other soul with this problem, but I don't think it's that rare. Thanks very much, Mandar. ps: I've encountered this problem on SuSE 10.0 (kernel 2.6.13-15, alsa 1.0.13), Ubuntu 6.10 and Fedora 6. I've even tried the oss drivers from 4Front Technologies to no avail. BUT when I reboot to my other partition (which has Fedora 2 installed), I get both channels fine, so it is not a hardware/jack/cabling problem. Likewise, I've read reports that this problem did not exist on SuSE 9.x. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
