Daniel, Thank you for the advice. Unfortunately, I don't know what the output of amixer means, or how to change any of the settings. Is there a graphical interface that I can use to set the mixer levels? Most of my experience is with (shudder) Windows XP. Below is the output from amixer, from a terminal window with the live CD of Ubuntu 9.10: -- ubu...@ubuntu:~$ sudo amixer Simple mixer control 'Master',0 Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Limits: Playback 0 - 64 Mono: Playback 52 [81%] [-12.00dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'Headphone',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 64 Mono: Front Left: Playback 64 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] Front Right: Playback 64 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'PCM',0 Capabilities: pvolume Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 255 Mono: Front Left: Playback 255 [100%] [0.00dB] Front Right: Playback 255 [100%] [0.00dB] Simple mixer control 'Front',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 64 Mono: Front Left: Playback 52 [81%] [-12.00dB] [on] Front Right: Playback 52 [81%] [-12.00dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'Front Mic Boost',0 Capabilities: volume Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: 0 - 2 Front Left: 0 [0%] Front Right: 0 [0%] Simple mixer control 'Capture',0 Capabilities: cvolume cswitch Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 31 Front Left: Capture 1 [3%] [-15.00dB] [on] Front Right: Capture 1 [3%] [-15.00dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'Capture',1 Capabilities: cvolume cswitch Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 31 Front Left: Capture 1 [3%] [-15.00dB] [on] Front Right: Capture 1 [3%] [-15.00dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'Beep',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 12 Mono: Front Left: Playback 0 [0%] [-24.00dB] [off] Front Right: Playback 0 [0%] [-24.00dB] [off] Simple mixer control 'Input Source',0 Capabilities: cenum Items: 'Mic' 'Front Mic' Item0: 'Mic' Simple mixer control 'Input Source',1 Capabilities: cenum Items: 'Mic' 'Front Mic' Item0: 'Mic' ubu...@ubuntu:~$
