no waveIn is part of winmm, not directsound
winmm (thru wineoss) using any available sound device at OS level
so, if you sound card isn't properly configured in Linux, wine won't 
be able to access the sound card

to check if your sound card is supported, check out
cat /dev/sndstat

I have something like (see the audio device in duplex mode)
OSS/Free:3.8s2++-971130
Load type: Driver loaded as a module
Kernel: Linux erato.hsh.fr 2.2.17-21mdk #1 Thu Oct 5 13:16:08 CEST 2000
i686
Config options: 0
 
Installed drivers:
 
Card config:
 
Audio devices:
0: Crystal audio controller (CS4236) (DUPLEX)
 
Synth devices:
0: Yamaha OPL3
 
Midi devices:
 
Timers:
0: System clock
1: Crystal audio controller (CS4236)
 
Mixers:
0: Crystal audio controller (CS4236)     

A+

Not all of the oss OSS compatable sound drivers have a sndstat device, so
if wine uses that to test the driver it's making a big mistake. I use the
emu10k1 drivers (creative), and they work fine with wine. Both input and
output work in sound recorder. (I haven't tried input in half life though.)

Could someone _please_ post info on setting up the WineMM section of the
config file! I'v never found anything (useful) about it in the docs.

hey thanks for replayin...

well, i do use one of the driver upon the 'OSS' section in the Kernel (
sound menu )
[ may be this is the problem ?! ]

so if i cat /dev/sndstat i get ::

prototype:/home/cone# cat /dev/sndstat 
cat: /dev/sndstat: No such device
prototype:/home/cone# 

so what to do ???
