Also, do the test with a mixer open (aumix etc) and see if the bars are moving. igain is especially important, it should not be 0 when you talk.
Thanks, but how do I open the mixer to see the bars? There doesn't seem to be any such function in the beta version of skype which I'm using (which by the way worked absolutely fine with CentOS 5.0).
Launch a text console and try 'alsamixer'.
Thanks for that - one more thing regarding skype and dependency packages. I installed qt4 because I thought skype needed it - however, should I now remove qt4 and perhaps start again with the static version of skype (Niki Kovacs email 3 Dec) - if so, do I need to reinstall any other packages to 'restore' the system?
