Then I also got the alsa-base, alsa-utils as well. There was a gnome alsamixer package as well Fairly straightforward, and it works although the sound is a bit scratchy at the moment, maybe playing around with the mixer will fix it up. -- Rex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Dan,
REsponding to you directly as I'm not on the List, but
was searching the Archives.
Not sure this will solve the problem.
But if your Debian is Stable, you may need additional
devices to support sound. Read man MAKEDEV
If you are using the devfs, with 2.4.22-pre10
you must boot with: option devfs=nomount
before you can run:
cd /dev
./MAKEDEV -v -d audio
--
audio: This creates the audio devices
used by the sound driver.
These include mixer mixer{1..3} (Mixer
controls), sequencer (Audio sequencer), dsp dsp{1..3} (Digital audio),
sndstat(Sound card status information), audioctl (SPARC audio
control device)and audio audio{1..3} (Sun-compatible
digital audio). MIDI devices are midi00 through midi03,
midi{0..3}, rmidi{0..3}, smpte{0..3}.
In addition, devices mpu401data and mpu401stat are created.

MarvS
Thanks!
I will try that once I find out how
to boot with option devfs=nomount !
You don't have to be on this list to post.
Kind Regards
Dan Hunt

Re: Sound config
Do this and be very carefull. Take a look at your /etc/apt/sources.list add a line for unstable. Do a apt-get update then do a apt-get install sndconfig. Then do not wait do not pass go do not collect $200 comment out the unstable line from your sources. Then do a apt-get update and press on. Yes there are some problems with doing it this way and yes apt might complain at you in the future but with the 1 or 2 packages I really need (pdq and xpdq) that I have done this with I have not broken anything.

Now I'm using Debian 2.2 but I can't find the sndconfig tool I had in Corel. Apt-get couldn't fetch package sndconfig.

I don't know where to start from and what to do next. Is there anyone that can tell me what I should do, step by step? I've only the soundcore module compiled in the kernel.

I've read the kernel Changes file, but it says nothing about this. Does anyone know what I can do to get the sound card working with this kernel? You need to either pass the parameters from the command line (either with an append=sound... in /etc/lilo.conf or at the actual LILO command line) or you need to make your sound a module. I have this in my /etc/modules : auto cs4232 io=0x530 irq=11 dma=0 dma2=3 You obviously need to change things to reflect your own setup, but that should be a good guide.

Re: Sound Config Probs
I guess the post 2.0 kernels handle this differently. I know that if you use 2.0.3x the isapnp runs AFTER the kernel inits built-in's but BEFORE modules are loaded. The best thing would be for the driver to do the pnp stuff itself which is how (I think) it happens in windows. I'll have to revist this sound config stuff when I move to 2.2.1x (I'm waiting for 2.2.13 since 2.2.12 STILL has some bad bugs in it.
