I have kernel 2.6.18-r6, skype 1.3.0.53, alsa-driver 1.0.14-rc3 My audio works fine, it's not perfect, a bit quiet but good enough to listen to music or movies. I've never managed to get my microphone to work with this sound card either, even though the microphone bars are there in alsamixer. I solved the problem by buying a cheap little external usb sound card which I use exclusively for skype, it works fine. You just have to set up a second sound card using usb-audio. There's a page on the gentoo-forums on how to do it (it's for an actual skype phone, but the sound setup is much the same) http://forums.gentoo.org//viewtopic-t-390911-highlight-usb+phone.html Matt -- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Dr. Matthew R.
