I just posted a [1]note about this. And then another [2]followup with details about the Live! 1. http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2002/debian-user-200208/msg05395.html 2. http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2002/debian-user-200208/msg05465.html > Debian Woody with 2.4.18bf2.4 kernel > Soundblaster Live! soundcard The Live! uses the emu10k1 driver. Not the sb driver. A pitfall. In my earlier note I wrote: > The program you want is 'modconf'. > > su root > modconf > > Then select the sound driver for your card. Which one?

Select that and have modconf configure your system to load it. That should be all there is to it. Then sit back and play some mp3s. Oh, no not those Evil(TM) mp3s which are patent encumbered and possibly require an expensive license. Retake. Play some er, uh, Ogg Vorbis files! Bob
