That is a pci type card (chip) and therefore, I would recommend just using 'modconf'. This program is a module loader for all sorts of modules from file system types to ether-net cards. Go into the sound section and pick your sound type, press enter and it will attempt to load the module. If it fails, it will tell you on the spot. If it works, it will tell you it was successful. Also note that you need to add any users accounts to the audio group to have the right to use the sound card; adduser joefoo audio (as root). That should get you up and running. tatah - -- Jaye Inabnit\ARS ke6sls\/A GNU-Debian linux user\/ http://www.qsl.net/ke6sls If it's stupid, but works, it ain't stupid. I SHOUT JUST FOR FUN.
