I wonder if you could try an Ubuntu 8.04.1 desktop CD and see if this also causes a problem? Looks like someone else is having a problem - http://joeb454.co.uk/2008/11/05/ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex-pt-2/ There was a suggestion on here of reducing the PCM volume in the Volume Control which fixed the problem for them. It could be worth a shot. You might be worth also raising a bug report with the Ubuntu developers (see here for details on how to do this... http://www.ubuntu.com/community/reportproblem) Rob -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
