I use ESS 1688 (nice cheap board BTW) About recording apps, U can use the following: Try this poorman's oscilloscope: cat /dev/audio Then if u see what looks like a perl program been spit out , then your card is converting analog sound to digital signal. Try running aumix at same time to see if u can change the "picture", by adjusting the levels. Now is time to record this digital signal. Use sox, a rocket-science-cientist-friendly program: sox -tossdsp /dev/dsp tst.wav Now play it: play tst.wav If u can hear the nice sound , U are in business. If not, there is some thing wrong with your sound card. Try another card, check your cables, irq, dma , /var/log/messages etc. Good luck. -- > We're sure there are people out there that find mountain goats,hand puppets, > and Un*x System Administration manuals suitable for sexual enhancement, > but that's not "common". > From alt.sex.FAQ
