i can't speak for the original poster, but the internal speaker in my blue G3 has never worked, but sound does work if i plug headphones into the sound out. cat english.au > /dev/audio does fine for a test. i use 2.2.19 with dmasound compiled in. aumix does nothing for activating the internal speaker. way way back i remember being told that the way its wired in is proprietary and undocumented so the Linux sound drivers could not support it. that was quite some time ago however. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
