Re: [newbie] recording to my hard drive

(Should I uninstall some?) When I look at the mixers I don't see any reason why it won't record. Anybody got a clue what the problem might be? I'm not sure if this is relevant or not but since the last time I recorded an lp I installed a DVD burner and a second hard drive. here's a shot in the dark, run Aumix, and look under the collum labeled Rec. if the input source is green then it is turned OFF as a recording source, if it is red, then it is toggled on, you can click on the button to toggle it on/off I ran into this same problem as well, but with video capture, anyway, i had learned after a week of digging around :) drwhat -- ***### Linux user #:265953 os:mandake v10-official cpu:amd duron 1.2G mobo:asus a7v133mem:512M cdr:HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GMA-4020B nic:netgear fa311 graphics:nvidia geforce3 ti200 64m ddr hda:FUJITSU MPA3017AT, 1.7G hdb:Western Digital WD1200BBRTL,120G hdd:Seagate 80020,80G sound:ensoniq creative audiopci/es1370 videocapture:Hauppauge WinTV GO 190 Today is Tommorrow, is Yesterday, but neither, is niether loc:48'02N 122'49W pgp386xjkKPX3.pgp Description: PGP signature
