I have installed eCS 2.0 Silver from scratch.

Both audio channels are working.

OK, thanks. What computer are you using?


For example, I am looking at one of these:

  Product: ThinkPad T60 1951-43U [change]
  Operating system: All [change]

  Original description: T2400(1.83GHz), 512MB RAM, 60GB 5400rpm HD, 14.1in
1024x768 LCD,
  Intel 950, CDRW/DVD, Intel 802.11abg wireless, Modem, 1Gb Ethernet, UltraNav,
Secure chip,
  6c Li-Ion batt, WinXP Pro

But you gave me 6458-CTO, which tells me this:

  Product: ThinkPad T61 6458-CTO [change]
  Operating system: All [change]

  Original description: ThinkPad T61 Configure-To-Order system

So you can see, not much information to use for selecting a computer...

Neil

You are correct.  CTO does not tell you much.  My T61 runs Silver just fine.  It says that it is a 6463-5BU with a 15.4 screen.  I have upgraded it to 2 Gb and a 320 Gb SATA.  The display is a Mobile Intel 965.  It has an Intel 82566MM Ethernet and an Intel 4965AG WiFi.  I also run WinXP and Ubuntu with eCS under VirtualBox on both.

I would look for the Intel peripheral chipsets.
