OK, I spent several hours messing with it, including trying the
things shown at the audacity URL above. But at that point, it was
as if there was no input device there. gave up, went to bed.
next day I noticed that no audio played at all even without the
USB device, not from a DVD, nor a MP3 file, nor from any web
video. so I figured some bit of hardware had gotten into some
"I'm gonna play dead" state, so I did a full power off and reboot,
after which I had normal audio again.
so I plugged in the USB device again and fed some audio into its
line in. fired up Audacity and was able to select the USB device
as its input, and it records!
the recording, when played back, is kinda jumpy, as if bits of
it got lost on record, but otherwise doesn't sound too bad.
Wondering if I need to try a realtime kernel... (or maybe I
should just pause the Folding At Home client while recording...
there's a thing to try! :)
thanks for the hint!
Fred
