That did it! Thanks for the remark. I have no problem pronouncing /T/ and /D/
(and their equivalent stops - thanks to Tokana :) -), so beginning with them
and then moving my lip, I got the so much desired linguolabial stop :) . I
managed to do a voiceless, voiced and aspirated linguolabial stop, the
corresponding fricatives, and even a nasal one :) . I think I even got a click,
but I'm to unsure about clicks to tell more.

Now comes the problem of recognizability. I have a hard time differentiating
them from labial consonnants. Lack some training as I see it :) .
