As I had problems with the video I had never actually checked the 
audio aspect.  However, having thought about it overnight, I realised 
that I had not actually tried using the front-panel connector for the 
microphone in any application, so obviously I should check that it 
works at all before continuing on that line.

Also, I seem to have had a lot of stability problems since loading the 
pwcx module.  I wonder if this is because I run the 2.4.21-0.13mdk 
kernel with the Win4Lin patch.  Maybe that patch is introducing a 
conflict.  I am going to take out the automatic loading of the module 
and do it manually when I need it.

I have a non-patched mm kernel that I can boot to, to see if that is 
affected.

I will try all this as soon as I have checked out the points mentioned 
above.  I'll report back everything possible.  Thanks
