Sounds like Tino's problem is what > I'd expect from my BIOS. But I'm probably completely ignorant :) The problem there is that the BIOS sets the current pin direction for both input and output, but you can't play and record at the same time on a jack. It's not about the capability. BIOS is supposed to set all the pins properly ready for use, but it's not so on Mac.
