Sound on a PowerBook G3 Firewire
Hi all,
Has anyone been able to get sound recording working on the PowerBook
G3 Firewire? Using Gnomemixer, I can turn up the line in for the
build in mic, and hear the input from it, but when I try to use some
program like audicity, I can't seem to point it at anything that will
get me some useful sound. Not ever a screech.
And playing back in audicity doesn't seem to work, though GNOME and
esd work fine... And I did try it without turning ESD on... I've try
playing back it /dev/dsp{0} but it keeps saying that it can't open the
file, or something.
What exactly are all these files?
/dev/audio (I know cat english.au > /dev/audio produceds the nice
sound of Linus' soothing voice. ^_^)
/dev/dsp
/dev/mixer (Kinda know what this is.)
No I've been playing with ALSA, and kinda works too, but I can't get
anything useful except for the beep.
Tried it with and without devfs, but with /dev changing all the time,
I'm sooooo confused...
Anyone who's had success with recording with the PowerBook, please
help me. (help getting the mic on a USB webcam to work would also be
appreciated...)
thanks in advance.
Marshal
