Ah, I see. I know that dev/dsp is a symbolik link but that's about it. I'm bit unsure as to where it should actually be pointing at. Mandrake 9.2 used to lose the sound card on another machine occasionally if I had been in Windows.devicefiles are present yes, this doesn't mena that there are devices attached to the files.
Urgh yes, AWE32 is a physically very long ISA card. Would newer kernels or the textmode Redhat sound configuration tools help?isa-cards are tricky, specially the isapnp once *which AFAIK your card is).
dpkg -l <pattern> searches on package-name
Howabout apt-cache search pattern I used that. but it tends to be slow if I say something like: apt-cache search .*gnome.*
yes you can. But I find compilign them myself better mostly.That's what people are telling me, hehe. I'd like to get things done quickly and most access thingies up and running painlessly at this point, worrying about performance and disk space usage much much later. Besides, I've never compiled a kernel in my life, though I have seen it being done and it was not awfully difficult. I know I need to take that step at some point but I would not want to tackle it just yet.

Thanks for the link.
It's nicely minimalistic, though I prefer OOP for anything larger and or more complex.have to learn C now for my studies.
I'm programming a very simple database app in Swing as an exercise. I like SQL syntactically but Swing is difficult.Currently playing around with java rmi (remote method invocation)
How does it know the right sampling rate and isn't there some header that sounds like garbage?YOu could also try to find any SUN Audio files (.au) on the web and cat them to /dev/audio
