Hi: Not sure what impact the alsa debian packages would have, since I've never used them. You can use dpkg to check for installed packages. The best command to use in this particular case, in my opinion, is: dpkg --get-selections |grep -i alsa This is a bit of a funny way to do it, but it allows you to be non-specific with package names. I think I've found your problem, however. It is in /etc/modutils/alsa which is read into /etc/modules.conf when you do an update-modules. There are two lines in there that read: alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm1-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm1-oss You need to remove the 1 from both these lines, ie, so it says snd-pcm-oss. There is also a line a bit further down that says: options snd-card-sbawe snd_index=1 snd_id=CARD_1 snd_port=0x220 snd_mpu_port=0x300 snd_awe_port=-1 snd_irq=5 snd_dma8=1 snd_dma16=5 snd_mic_agc=0 snd_index needs to be 0 not 1. Also, yours has snd_id set to CARD_1 and mine is set to "SB16" (yes, in quotes), but I don't think this will matter at all. So go edit /etc/modutils/alsa to fix these, then run update-modules and that should do the trick. I think. Geoff. -- Geoff Shang <gshang10 at scu.edu.au> ICQ number 43634701
