This works, as root. As a mortal user, I can not get it to record anything. What permissions do I have to change for this? Also, the voice being recorded is really, really faint. There is an option called Mic Boost [+20dB] on alsamixer, but I can not seem to increase it at all. It is currently set at the lowest (non-existent) level, and I want to increase this. How do I go about increasing this volume, can anyone please tell me? Any other suggestions on how I could increase its recording volume? Best wishes! __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
