Can you tell me which model it is? Unfortunately, I threw out all the packaging after I determined that it works. They cost $39 and have builtin headphone and mic volume controls. There is also a USB adaptor, but I have not been able to get that to work with skype. In fact, I had to plug the mic plug directly into the mic jack at the rear of the computer to get the mic to work with skype. I also had to remove pulseaudio modules to be able to adjust the volume. With pulseaudio gone alsamixer seems to work well. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
