Yes, thanks. I finally got it to work using vanilla 2..4.19, acpi patch and the developement release alsa drivers from their web site. I think my problem all along was that I didn't modprobe snd-pcm-oss (sound and snd-pcm are not enough) Now it works, but the sound isn't as loud as under Windows XP (even at maximum "vol" and "pcm" settings using aumix), and it gets distorted when "vol" setting is higher than ~ 50% [1] I will be investigating this issue in next few days and perhaps pester this list some more. For now, I'd like to thank everyone who replied for their help! Oleg [1] I don't really understand why there are two independent volume controls in aumix: "vol" is referred to as the main volume control, and "pcm" is connected to the xmms volume control. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
