[support] How to output a user's comments?

[marcob]

Thanks for helping once again Earl,

had the chance to try the latest Views module only today, but cannot 
make the Recent Comments view output any thing..

tryed both setting it up with a 'Author: User ID' argument, and with a 
'Node: Author is current user' filter,
but i keep getting only the empty page text back..

I attach the two views below in case you are up to assist further:

==== Argument View ====
   $view = new stdClass();
   $view->name = 'user_comments';
   $view->description = 'Display user recent comments';
   $view->access = array (
);
   $view->view_args_php = 'if ($type == \'block\' && arg(0) == \'user\' 
&& is_numeric(arg(1))) {
   $uid = arg(1);
   //$node = node_load($uid);
   $args[] = $uid;
}
return $args;';
   $view->page = TRUE;
   $view->page_title = 'commenti utente';
   $view->page_header = '';
   $view->page_header_format = '1';
   $view->page_footer = '';
   $view->page_footer_format = '1';
   $view->page_empty = 'nessun commento';
   $view->page_empty_format = '1';
   $view->page_type = 'node';
   $view->url = 'commenti';
   $view->use_pager = FALSE;
   $view->nodes_per_page = '20';
   $view->block = TRUE;
   $view->block_title = 'Commenti';

   );
   $view->exposed_filter = array (
   );
   $view->requires = array(comments, node_comment_statistics);
   $views[$view->name] = $view;
