I thought the 2.6.x kernels used ALSA by default now, at least the Debian kernels. I did not need to do anything when I installed 2.6.8 other than disable the Arts sound in KDE. If you are running KDE, try disabling Arts sound. I don't even have ALSA packages installed, the kernel provided ALSA. 8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
