Hi, What's the most simple way to check if my microphone works on a plain CentOS 5.3 desktop? Is there a simple way, for example, to record voice into a simple .wav file? Niki

Now my microphone is working nicely with CentOS, and I can even record sound with Audacity. One trouble, though. I can't seem to get the microphone to work with Skype. Since there seem to be no more RPMS for RHEL, I downloaded and installed the static version. I can hear the sound of the test voice, but I can't record a message on the audio test interface. Any clues about that? Niki
