Can you also post the output of 'cat /dev/sndstat'?  The AC97 codec is just 
one component in your sound system and probably not related to the recording 
problem.

Can you provide some additional info about the recording problem? e.g. you've 
checked the mixer rec input, mixer gain, but is any data is produced?  If so, 
does it sound garbled, inaudible, etc...

Thanks
