Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] USB Audio Problem with 0.85.1

[Pablo Ortúzar <portuzar wanadoo fr>]

Hi

I run Gnomemeeting 0.94.1on SuSE 8 Pro with a Philips ToUCam Pro  webcam. I 
had the same problem you have.  Try this as root, & keep the  /dev settings 
you have:

modprobe snd-mixer-oss 
 
modprobe snd-pcm-oss 
 
rmmod snd-usb-audio 
 
modprobe audio

It worked for me. Hope it works for you.

Pablo
