Sorry for the imprecision, both system use the vanilla kernel (preemption 
disabled) from kernel.org, both are compiled for an amd processor with the 
same .config file.
The difference is such that  on debian it's just impossible to use band in a 
box with wine whereas it works great on mandrake!

Maybe this is the point but i don't know how to solve it.
I know that the glibc version differ between mandrake and debian i'll 
investigate that.

I wonder if there is a place somwhere in mandrake's distro, where they tweaked 
something to better the sound system ...(alsa option, IRQ fiddling, or 
something...)

Thanks for your advice
