Niki: Welcome to the club! This is something I have tried to get
working, on my CentOS 5 (32 bit) desktop. William was very kind and he
volunteered to help, but I have other projects, with higher
priorities, ahead of this one now. Great to know that one of the
previous responders has it working AOK. My Sound Card is a Generic,
which uses the snd-cs46xx driver. It's a Cirrus Logic and Skype works
perfectly on M$ Windows, which is the main reason why this is still a
dual boot box. Like yours, my calls to the Skype test robot are all
one way. I can hear her, but she can't hear me. GL! Lanny
