Best and easiest way is to use a soundcard for which the alsa-driver supports hw-multiplexing (see http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/). There are also some sw-multiplexing mechanisms available. eg arts which is part of KDE, gnome has it's own but I forgot it's name. Alsa directly supports sw-multiplexing, too. You have to setup a dmix device therfore (again see the alsa web page). regards Christoph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

AFAIK there are not much wlan drivers in the kernel, so you have to find out which chipset your card uses (with lspci) and install the driver manually. Or maybe you are lucky and there is a package for that driver. And configuration depends on the driver. regards Christoph

Re: Problems reading DVD video with vlc
Hi,
I had nearly the same problem with a Debian-Kernel xxx-i686 on a Celeron box.
With a xxx-386 kernel it works fine.
Hope that helps.
