The removal of the asound.conf file just caused the audio to not work. I have<br>
not delved very far into the inner workings of the Neo so I don't know if any<br>
errors are available to report. Since there is no "messages" file I can't list<br>
it here.<br>
<br>
I'm presuming that you meant me to use the state file that you linked to in<br>
your email. I put it on the neo and rebooted (don't know how to "load" the<br>
state machine from the command line).<br>
<br>
Your new state file had no discernible effect on the quality of the audio. It<br>
was still very broken up and delayed and exactly the same as the original<br>
state file.<br>
<br>
Cheers!!<br>

<br>as i said, it worked here, i could call myself on another PC using Ekiga/linphone on it and on my mobile. didn't test how the removal of asound.conf affects the system in general, especially after a reboot. i guess it is there for a reason. i would like to do further testing, but i'm short in time for at least the next few days.<br>
<br>anyway, feel free to mail :)<br><br>Greetings!<br>
