Hi, I somehow messed up my audio settings with amixer, at least that's what I believe. Not I have the problem that my voice is really quiet when I talk into the mic, but that there is *a lot* of white noise! This started, when I tried to record from pcm, so I googled and issued these commands: amixer set 'Capture' cap amixer set 'Capture' 10% amixer set 'Mix' amixer set 'Mix' cap the last two command probably did not have an effect because there is no such device. I might have done some other things, like changing recording device in audacity or using arecord. Hope anybody has a suggestion. Otherwise I might have to reinstall kubuntu - although I don't even know whether that would fix it. THanks!!! Wolfgang -- Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger gehört?
