I do not have any specific knowledge about your audio card, but I noticed one potential source of trouble: Your lsmod output shows a mix of ALSA modules (snd_*) and OSS modules (*_audio). AFAIK this is not the recommended approach; if you need an OSS compatibility layer then you should use snd_pcm_oss, snd_mixer_oss and snd_seq_oss together with the ALSA modules. You can try to blacklist the i810_audio module in /etc/modprobe.d. Normally this should be configured for you automatically if you run "dpkg-reconfigure linux-sound-base" and select ALSA as the sound system. (I suspect this is set to "default" at the moment.) -- Regards, Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
