Bad form, I know, replying to one's own message, but anyway...

I've got the new webcam & mic working correctly now. ÂNot only did I
have to select the correct input in Skype's options, but I had to play
with mixer settings, too. ÂAlthough I'm not 100% certain what I did!

That's with everything plugged in via the front panel connectors. ÂWho's
gonna bet that, when I get hold of cable extenders and plug everything
into the back panel (so I don't accidentally yank the wiring), it all
goes pear shaped again?
