usb mic disables alsa

Hi, I have a PowerBook5,4, running the latest unstable debian kernel (linux-image-2.6.15-1-powerpc). I have a Logitech usb microphone, and if I boot with it unplugged, everything is fine and alsa works correctly. However, if it is plugged in when I boot Linux, the system does not load the module

Re: Apple iSight

This is very annoying. I suppose Apple assume that anyone choosing not to use the internal mic will do so for quality reasons and buy external soundcards. I found a simple mic preamp circuit here: http://www.tkk.fi/Misc/Electronics/circuits/micamp.html and I'm planning to use it with this electre
