Yeah, it's one of the grey-and-white 1 1/2 generation iBooks. Most of the hardware is the same, just a slightly faster processor and bigger HD. So I started messing around to get ALSA on this box. Took a while, and the sound was not very good (pops and things). However, I installed alsaplayer, and when using it with oss, the balance controls work properly. It seems that both aumix and xmms have the same bug. But the device works like it should. Frank Frank
