What are the failure symptoms and what PCI cards have you tried? A U60's onboard sound does work with Linux; and the modules provided with the Sparc64 2.4 kernel suggest that two types of PCI soundcards should work: ones based on a particular Trident chipset and ones based on a chipset used in Creative Soundblaster PCI and possibly Ensoniq Audio PCI cards. For onboard sound have you done modprobe cs4231 or added cs4231 to /etc/modules ? Have you set the PARAMS variable PARAMS="play.port=line_out" in /etc/default/audioctl ? In any Debian install a user account has to be a member of the "audio" group for the mixer or playback to work for that user. The mixer's volume level may default to 0. -- SP > > -- > ======================================= > > Carl Wharehinga > SolNet Solutions > 70 The terrace, Wellington > > DDI:+64 4 462-5042 Mobile:+64 21 899-074 > Fax:+64 4 462-5012 > > ======================================== > > > Attention: > This email may contain information intended for the sole use of > the original recipient.
