Hi Flo,
The audio devices in many notebooks are a bit
problematic.
Yeah.. I guess so. Although I guess external usb devices should be ok.
Please let us see the output of

and also what distro do you have installed? what
kernel?
It comes pre-installed with a customised Xandros distro. The Kernel seems to
be a 2.6.x.
Thanks for any help
