It works!! At first the recording was too quiet, so it wasn't quite plug and
play. However, I have not spent several months trying to get a mic going to
no avail.
I used to know absolutely nothing, nada, zilch. Now I know _almost_ nothing.
So I found how to adjust the mixer in gnome-sound-recorder, added the Mic
boost switch to the visible options, selected it.
And it now *works*. \o/ \o/
Al - Ubuntu appears to have put me on probation again. We have called an
uneasy truce.
So thanks, guys
