Hi, I'm having problems getting my sound blaster 16 working. I used modconf to select the sb module, which in turn selected a bunch of the oss modules. After doing this, I can play audio cd's, but whenever I try to run gmix it tells me that I do not have a mixer installed or my kernel doesn't support sound. When I run XMMS, it tells me my kernel either doesn't support sound or my card is not configured correctly. I figured my kernel supports sound because I can load sound modules and play audio cd's, so something else must be wrong. What else do I have to do to get sound to work under debian? ----- End forwarded message ----- I had the same problem, and you can do one of 2 things.. you can add yourself as a user to the audio group, or just chmod all the /dev/mixer devices to where they are world usable.. man chmod =)
