Hi,

I'm trying to record something spoken with a integrated microphone in a 
headset on my R40 (2722-3GG). 

System is a recently updated debian unstable box with alsa modules directly 
from kernel 2.6.5.

Following alsa modules are loaded:

~$ lsmod | grep snd
snd_intel8x0           29444  1
snd_ac97_codec         60548  1 snd_intel8x0
snd_pcm_oss            48164  0
snd_mixer_oss          17408  1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_pcm                83364  2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm_oss
snd_timer              21380  1 snd_pcm
snd_page_alloc          8964  2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm
snd_mpu401_uart         6400  1 snd_intel8x0
snd_rawmidi            19744  1 snd_mpu401_uart
snd                    46564  10 
snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi
soundcore               7392  1 snd

Mic is activated via kmixer (and also alsamixer). I can hear my voice but krec 
does not recording anything (kde 3.2.2).

Don't know if it is a problem of the sound system or of krec. 
Any hints? Which other software can I try to use?

Thanks in advance...
Thomas
