No Sound Input in Ubuntu 9.10

Posted on | October 17, 2009 | Views (1,679) | Comments (0)

As I’m using a beta version of ubuntu 9.10, plenty of updates are installed before its final release. In the beginning, skype 2.1 is working with pulseaudio like a charm. The sound quality is much improved than any of the former skype-ubuntu combination Maybe it’s because of the frequent updates. There is no longer sound input after a normal reboot.

As a normal user, we have to use privilege-gaining tools such as sudo to run programs as the root user when required. With the super user rights in hand, are we still working in the same environmments set by the normal user ?
