To stop the buzzing open the volume control from the sound & video in the k 
menu, and side down the sliders to zero untill it stops. I think it a problem  
feedback caused by feedback through the microphone, but it seems to get worse 
will the mouse is moving so i am not sure.

the no sound in KDE can be solved by using the command "touch /dev/dsp" before 
"startx". there is probably a start up script you could insert this in to, 
but i am not completely sure which one it is.

Be warned that the volume is very loud on iMacs with yellowdog. i dont know 
how that can be fixed, but i find that the lowest speaker volume is enough 
for most things, and for sound out has to be set to zero to avoid distortion.

hope this helps
