I used to have this problem after I installed sarge laong ago. I just learned to run alsaconf frwquently. Then on day, after a routine upgrade, the problem went away. I never found out what the problem was, or how to fix it. But I've never got my USB port working properly. I suspect hardware. If I had a choice I'd rather have USB and occasionally run alsaconf! -- hendrik > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
