snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-seq-oss Open synaptic as root on the CLI, and see if the oss-compat package is installed, if not, install it, then reboot, and see if sounds now work.

Post back the latest output from, lsmod | grep snd Nigel. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
