He's asking about the record volume. Mic volume should be all the way down,
but mic turned on. Record volume should be turned on and set to proper level
for your hearing. On my system, the record volume keeps resetting itself to
0 - that's one issue. Oftentimes, after making some calls, sometimes just
one, even resetting the record volume doesn't bring back my voice, and I have
to close Skype and then reopen it to fix that. I've spent some not
inconsiderable time on the Skype forum trying various fixes, but haven't
succeeded yet. It's a much discussed issue - if you find the solution,
Fernando, please post it.

OK, I'll check my mic with some other application, but it seems to
work fine, cause I can toggle on/off the mic with alsamix and I notice
the change if I touch or if I blow to the mic.

The stupid thing is that with a stock FC 6 installation Skype worked
and then after a while, it stopped to work properly.

I will try to find the solution.
