Well, yes, that's pretty much why many of us fail to have something run: Because of different hardware and conditions. In short, while I have never had issues, I probably have always had decent hardware and modules over here...

I do recall one issue on a machine which I don't own anymore. It randomly crashed D3D with pulse, but I think it was something I did when I started using Wine and went all whacko with winetricks directx hehe.

tparker: I have also never had issues with the microphone ;) On the contrary, under Wine, it works great! Skype, though, tends to go nuts with desyncs, which is why I have to give it direct hw access.
