Yup, thanks, that's sorted it :)

Well, eventually.  It worked but I couldn't get alsamixer compiled without
having to link it manually; the ./build all command stopped with an error on
one of the utils pacakges (presumably this is no surprise given that I got it
through CVS) so I had to link the alsamixer and alsactl programs manually to
unmute the channels which took a good hour.

Another top tip when testing a microphone: make sure it's not a STEREO mic
plugged into a MONO socket.  It doesn't work :-)

cheers all,
