We have new PPC drivers. snd_powermac is obsolete for your Tumbler. Anyway udev should manage the drivers so try thefollowing etc/modules: apm_emu loop sbp2 >> $ lsmod | grep snd > > Here's the output from lsmod when sound isn't working: > > snd_powermac 48704 3 > snd_aoa_i2sbus 24388 0 > snd_pcm_oss 52480 0 > snd_mixer_oss 20384 1 snd_pcm_oss > snd_pcm 92324 4 snd_powermac,snd_aoa_i2sbus,snd_pcm_oss > snd_timer 26084 2 snd_pcm > snd_page_alloc 11272 1 snd_pcm > snd 67476 10 > snd_powermac,snd_aoa_i2sbus,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer > soundcore 8900 1 snd > snd_aoa_soundbus 7908 1 snd_aoa_i2sbus > > Here's the output when sound is working (after force reload): > > snd_aoa_i2sbus 24388 0 > snd_aoa_soundbus 7908 1 snd_aoa_i2sbus This is part of the new drivers. For your machine either aoa-onyx or aoa-tas should be the right one. You mentioned that you built drivers from alsa-source. Did you built all or only snd-powermac? If only powermac you have either to rebuild aoa-onyx and aoa-tas or remove the modules package cause the drivers should be in the Debian kernels by default.
