I have installed skype on my computer but I'm trying to get it working now.

sound worked directly and I found an old microphone, but I'm not sure if it still works.
How can I get the microhone up and how can I test if it works, I'm using alsa

You can emerge an recording tool, and make some recordings. KDE has krec built in.

iirc Skype also has this 'Test'-channel you can dial, leave a message and hear the same message played to/for you.

is it possible that I have to enable something in my alsa configuration in order to be able to record?

Try to emerge skype 1.3. It has a real ALSA-Support -> no more pain with artswrapper and stuff like that!!!
