[Lancaster] Problem recording sound

[Ken Hough]

I hope that one  (or more?) of you guys can help me with a problem that I'm 
having with my desktop Debian Lenny setup.

I have no problems in playing wave files via the likes of 'audacity', 
streaming sound off the Internet (eg Classic FM) via Konqueror/Mplayer, and 
playing CDs/DVDs and digital Radio/TV via Kaffeine.

However,  I cannot get audacity or anything else to pick up and record sound 
from any of these sound sources. I use KMix and have played with all of the 
available channels.

My old Thinkpad T42 laptop running SUSE v11.1 has no trouble in doing this.

What am I missing?
