Re: [SLE] Why is this so DA*N difficult?!?

Dear Marshall,

I've tried  Gramofile, KRecord and wavrec on my 8.1 sys withh a Creative SB 
Live! 5+1 to no avail. They all seem t9o think /dev/dsp is busy or 
non-existant. I have audio coming in to the 'line-in' jack and I hear it on 
line- out; I can control it with KMix. The recording apps cannot find 
/dev/dsp. 
Perhaps one of the more MultiMedia savy types will lend a hand?
