http://crunchbang.org – I encounter a problem with the microphone (originally because i was failing to get Skype working. Cfr. here). Following the advice of machinebacon i open this new thread. Brief description of the problem: Although, physically, a microphone is there, pulseaudio - in skype - (but probably generally, i'm not sure how to find that out) seems to not see it. (HowTos)
