sound card kernel module problems (Deb 2.2)
howdy, the problem that i have is i have a sound card and i would like to know what kernal module(s) to install to make it work (so the sounds in gnome work properly). when i was installing debian i used a menu that gave the module name and a description of the module, i managed to use that to chose a module that installed itself but it didnt work. i would like to know how to re-run the 'module selector' so i can try other modules to get it working properly. [any other methods would be kindly appreciated] thanks simon Is your boss reading your email? Probably Keep your messages private by using Lycos Mail. Sign up today at http://mail.lycos.com

i have downloaded xmanpages.deb and installation went just fine. but if i type say man XOpenDisplay it just pauses, when i push CTRL-C it then says that it cant remove a file in /tmp. is there some kind of man data base that has to be told where to find the files or what ?
