You should read some general Debian documents. I only have links to german pages right now, but debian.org should give some pointers. > Also my system can't find any opti92x module does this mean I have to go > find/download one?

You need to get rid of them ;) by installing alsa-modules-2.4.18 and configuring the modules. www.alsa-project-org/alsa-doc has detailed instructions for this. On Debian, modules configuration takes place under /etc/modutils. With modconf you can install or deinstall the kernel-modules. ALSA has alsaconf to help with configuring the alsa-modules, but last time I looked, this was broken. You might be better of by creating a file /etc/modutils/alsa as described on alsa-project.org and run update-modules as root by hand. ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__
