Thanks, Rene.  Yes, I'm willing to try recompiling the kernel-- with guidance.

uname -r= 2.6.25.9

modprobe snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss= FATAL: Error inserting snd_pcm_oss
(/lib/modules/2.6.25.9/kernel/sound/acore/oss/snd-pcm-oss.ko): Unknown symbol in
module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

dmesg=  snd_pcm_oss: Unknown parameter `snd-mixer-oss'
snd_pcm_oss: Unknown parameter `snd-mixer-oss'
snd_pcm_oss: Unknown parameter `snd-mixer-oss'

aplay -D > front foo.wav= silence.

Thank you for your help and persistence.

Best regards,

Landis
