I do not have any ALSA packages installed on my old Thinkpad and I have sound using kernel 2.6.8 Should I install ALSA packages? When I tried to do it, I got the same errors as the original poster. I discovered that I did not need ALSA packages and all I needed to do to get sound to work was disable Arts sound system in KDE. 8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
