I'll be honest, I really don't know much more than what I posted. If recompiling a package from source is beyond you, then maybe you shouldn't bother. I personally wouldn't bother, since this is supposed to be "Easy" Debian, and that isn't very easy sounding...

I doubt Audacity would perform very well on the tablet, anyway. I tried using it a year ago and it took forever to load an MP3, and it kept crashing... Have you checked to make sure you're recording with a very low sample rate (try 8bitkhz PCM first)?
