Right - this one gave me the clue. I had checked the settings in aumix, but I hadn't realised that I needed to change the Rec to red - should have done. However, now I can get sound easily with the aumix line showing red. As soon as I change to rec I get sound, but with what sounds like someone fast beating on woodblocks at the same time. Any ideas on that one? Anne -- Registered Linux User No.293302 Have you visited http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org yet?
