[ltp] Stereo Audio input on T60p

[Richard Neill]

Hi,

It's annoying, isn't it. Why Lenovo dropped the Line in, I don't know.
Anyway, I recommend you buy a cheap USB soundcard, such as the Behringer 
UCA202 for £20. I have one of these, and it works extremely well with 
Linux. The other big advantage is that the noise is much lower - no EMI 
interference (typically 1kHz from the processor entering/leaving sleep) 
on the sound channels, and it does quite well at killing earth loops.

Best wishes,

Richard
