[GLLUG] Record from Line-in

[Sean]

Try something like this (probably as root unless you modified the 
permissions of the devices already): 
dd bs=8k count=4 </dev/audio >sample.au

then play it back with:
cat sample.au >/dev/audio

That records the _raw_ sound, you would then have to convert it to mp3. 
or set your mp3 converter to encode the /dev/audio device 

Actually all of this, i believe is covered in the linux how-to's
