Okay, I tried gnome-alsamixer, thereby hosing my nice galeon 1.2.12 installation ;^> (beauty doesn't come without a price). Nevertheless, the problem was not solved. I may say that I have had sound working with ALSA previously. It could be that the chip is hosed. Since it's a laptop, I can't really verify that. I'll try the OSS driver when I get a chance. -- Please do not CC me when replying to lists; I read them! .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer, admin, and user `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
