Hi Dominique, Thank you for your help. > You must have a file somewhere in /etc/modprobe.d with the options for the > sound modules. I am not sure about debian, but I think at it > is /etc/modprobe.d/sound. With Debian testing it is /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base. I added the following lines: --------- alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 options snd-intel8x0 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=1 alias snd-card-2 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=2 --------- The strange thing is that whenever I boot with just the webcam OR the headset connected everything works as expected. But when I boot with BOTH the webcam and the headset connect my on-board soundcard "disappears". But when I remove my customization above from /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base all three devices show up. Is there any way to get out some more debugging information from ALSA so that I can see why my on-board soundcard is not available in this special situation? > This kind of problem with the sound (and other modules) is really bad for > linux because multimedia is a great and fast growing part of computer > experience, and that with every OS.

I would like to try debugging as much as I can with this lists help before I move to even another mailing list... > Another solution is to try gentoo, the docs are the best of all the linux > distribution I know. I tried already. Too much compiling. :-) Thanks & Greetings from Solothurn Ronny ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
