    Hello,

    for a few days i have done a Dist-Upgrade from Jaunty to Karmic on my AOA 150. All the stuff works fine except the mic. I can record something without problem, but when i play the file i get only a loud signal noise. Under Jaunty the mic works fine, a little bit to silent, but it was o.k. I use skype to talk with friends an so i need the mic. :cry:

    Is there anywhere a howto or has anybody an idea, to get the mic working again or how to check which settings are not O.K.

    Thanks and regards
    Stefan

    installing pavucontrol and unlocking the inputs and muting one and leaving the other on high works. i now can use my internal mic with all apps including skype. :mrgreen:
