That's the thing: there's no error message whatsoever. Each program believes that all is well and plays. Here is an example from MPlayer: /data>\mplayer Dolly_Parton___Jolene.mp3 MPlayer dev-SVN-r26940 CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) X2 Dual Core Processor BE-2300 (Family: 15, Model: 107, Stepping: 1) CPUflags: MMX: 1 MMX2: 1 3DNow: 1 3DNow2: 1 SSE: 1 SSE2: 1 Compiled with runtime CPU detection.

Then please provide lspci -knn and lsmod output as well. Yes it is, I sent the bug report from the offending machine. I'm using it. So you already have the output. I'll put it anyway at the end of this mail. I should add that a friend of mine who is also a Debian developper (Vincent Fourmond) gave me a hand trying to figure out what was wrong. I did not report the bug without a thorough chek beforehand. Heck, I even installed Lenny twice and Etch once again just to check this problem out! No sound in Lenny means for me no music, no tv and no movies... Best, Sébastien. ========================================================================== [lspci -knn] 00:00.0 RAM memory [0500]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 Memory Controller [10de:0444] (rev a3) 00:01.0 ISA bridge [0601]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 LPC Bridge [10de:0441] (rev a3) 00:01.1 SMBus [0c05]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 SMBus [10de:0446] (rev a1) Kernel driver in use: nForce2_smbus Kernel modules: i2c-nforce2 00:01.2 RAM memory [0500]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 Memory Controller [10de:0445] (rev a1) 00:02.0 USB Controller [0c03]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 USB Controller [10de:0454] (rev a3) Kernel driver in use: ohci_hcd Kernel modules: ohci-hcd 00:02.1 USB Controller [0c03]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 USB Controller [10de:0455] (rev a3) Kernel driver in use: ehci_hcd Kernel modules: ehci-hcd 00:06.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 Ethernet [10de:0450] (rev a3) Kernel driver in use: forcedeth Kernel modules: forcedeth 00:07.0 Audio device [0403]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 High Definition Audio [10de:044a] (rev a1) Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel 00:08.0 PCI bridge [0604]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 PCI bridge [10de:0449] (rev a1) 00:09.0 IDE interface [0101]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 IDE [10de:0448] (rev a1) Kernel driver in use: AMD_IDE Kernel modules: amd74xx 00:0a.0 IDE interface [0101]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 SATA Controller [10de:045d] (rev a3) Kernel driver in use: ahci Kernel modules: ahci 00:0d.0 PCI bridge [0604]: nVidia Corporation MCP65 PCI Express bridge [10de:0458] (rev a1) Kernel driver in use: pcieport-driver Kernel modules: shpchp 00:18.0 Host bridge [0600]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] HyperTransport Technology Configuration [1022:1100] 00:18.1 Host bridge [0600]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Address Map [1022:1101] 00:18.2 Host bridge [0600]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] DRAM Controller [1022:1102] 00:18.3 Host bridge [0600]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Miscellaneous Control [1022:1103] Kernel driver in use: k8temp Kernel modules: k8temp 01:06.0 Multimedia audio controller [0401]: Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI [1274:5880] (rev 02) Kernel driver in use: ENS1371 Kernel modules: snd-ens1371 01:0e.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394) [0c00]: Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link) [104c:8024] Kernel driver in use: ohci1394 Kernel modules: ohci1394 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation NV44 [GeForce 6200 LE] [10de:0163] (rev a1) Kernel driver in use: nvidia Kernel modules: nvidia, nvidiafb ========================================================================== [lsmod] Module Size Used by nls_utf8 1760 1 cifs 208692 1 nvidia 7086148 24 agpgart 28776 1 nvidia ppdev 6468 0 lp 8164 0 ipv6 235300 18 jfs 148812 2 nls_base 6820 3 nls_utf8,cifs,jfs fuse 42908 3 sbp2 18572 0 loop 12748 0 parport_pc 22500 1 parport 30988 3 ppdev,lp,parport_pc pcspkr 2432 0 snd_hda_intel 324248 0 snd_seq_dummy 2660 0 k8temp 4064 0 snd_seq_oss 24992 0 snd_ens1371 19072 0 gameport 10700 1 snd_ens1371 snd_seq_midi 5728 0 snd_ac97_codec 88484 1 snd_ens1371 snd_rawmidi 18496 2 snd_ens1371,snd_seq_midi ac97_bus 1728 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm_oss 32800 0 snd_mixer_oss 12320 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_seq_midi_event 6432 2 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi snd_pcm 62596 4 snd_hda_intel,snd_ens1371,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_seq 41456 6 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event snd_timer 17800 2 snd_pcm,snd_seq snd_seq_device 6380 5 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq snd 45604 11 snd_hda_intel,snd_seq_oss,snd_ens1371,snd_ac97_codec,snd_rawmidi,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device soundcore 6368 1 snd snd_page_alloc 7816 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm button 6096 0 i2c_nforce2 5536 0 i2c_core 19828 2 nvidia,i2c_nforce2 evdev 8000 3 ext3 105512 1 jbd 39444 1 ext3 mbcache 7108 1 ext3 raid1 18016 1 md_mod 67036 2 raid1 sd_mod 22200 10 ide_cd_mod 27652 0 cdrom 30176 1 ide_cd_mod ide_pci_generic 3908 0 [permanent] usbhid 35904 0 hid 33184 1 usbhid ff_memless 4392 1 usbhid ahci 23596 6 amd74xx 7752 0 [permanent] ide_core 96168 3 ide_cd_mod,ide_pci_generic,amd74xx floppy 47716 0 ohci1394 24944 0 ieee1394 75800 2 sbp2,ohci1394 ata_generic 4676 0 libata 140384 2 ahci,ata_generic scsi_mod 129356 3 sbp2,sd_mod,libata dock 8304 1 libata forcedeth 45072 0 ehci_hcd 28428 0 ohci_hcd 18500 0 usbcore 118160 4 usbhid,ehci_hcd,ohci_hcd thermal 15228 0 processor 32576 1 thermal fan 4164 0 thermal_sys 10856 3 thermal,processor,fan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
