Hello d-u,
I recently moved an installation to a new box, which has integrated audio.
Specifically, from lspci:
0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio (rev 01)
A bit of googling shows what module to use (ac97_codec). However, the system says that /dev/dsp (which is linked to /dev/dsp0) is not a device. Something as trivial as:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] cat /etc/passwd > /dev/dsp0
bash: /dev/dsp0: No such device
bash: /dev/dsp0: No such device
fails. So naturally, alsaconf cannot find the device, either. But it is there, and worked under a previous installation. I'm fairly certain I have a broken alsa installation, as this machine's sound quit working before, when using a different card.
Should I not be using alsa?

Any help would be greatly appreciated; my fiancee is getting antsy not having any sound. :p
