    NOTE: Mods, please feel free to move this over to the Linux forum if need be, but seeing as all the hardware is Dell, thought I'd try here first.

    I'm running a Win XP Pro & Ubuntu Edgy dual boot on my M1210, but one of the things that's really stumping me is how to configure the built-in mic to work w/ Skype (i.e. the one right next to the cam on the A/V model). Skype for Linux doesn't have video support yet, so getting the webcam running isn't really an issue, but I'd really like to be able to be able to at least talk w/ family back in the US (I live in Japan).

    Thanks!



    HH ;)
