Just for fun, have you looked at alsamixer? I've found that to be off
in every laptop I've ever setup.
Most of it was on, and now all of it is.
Alsamixer reports it as an ATI IXP with a chip=conexant id 30
How do I change the 'view' to either capture or all? Ahh, got that, F5
and its all on & cranked. Nothing but circuit noises in the headphones
& nothing in the speakers. All the kde noisemakers work just fine.

People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word
'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's
stupid bounce rules. I do use spamassassin too. :-)
