I'm just assuming that you want to use ALSA now. Install the "alsa-utils" package and run "alsaconf" I think these are the modules that you want to load (and alsaconf should configure for you): snd-ens1371 snd-intel8x0 snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss A good idea would be to note all the modules before you run alsaconf (by running "lspci | grep snd") and after running alsaconf. Add any new modules to your /etc/modules file. Last, and certainly not least, run "alsamixergui" to set the volume levels properly so that you'll actually hear something. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
