I understand that.  Plus patch on patch....

I'm not altogether sure.  It's difficult to isolate events.  The first 
possible contributor is the fact that my usb hub stopped working.  I 
decided that it had died, and bought a new one.  This one is 
usb2/1.1.  (I don't have any usb2 devices, but thought it would be 
future proofing, and would do no harm).

The next time I tried to launch GnomeMeeting it was just displaying 
picture, and I had to change it to video0 - before the usb hub went 
it was starting up with video0 displayed.

I then went to the sound config page.  Everything looked reasonable 
(though I wound't necessarily know if it wasn't <g>) but couldn't get 
any indication that it was hearing me.  I sat and looked at it, 
trying to think what to do next, and suddenly got the crash message.  
I was not touching it at the time.  The picture was still on screen, 
but frozen.

I'll try to keep careful notes of what I try and feed it back to you.  
I should say, though, that my time is very limited at the moment, so 
it may be a day or two before I get back.  Thanks

Anne
