i did as you suggested. here is the output of my lspci and lsmod. i logged in as root and did lsmod > lsmod.txt and lspci > lspci.txt. lsmod: Module Size Used by Not tainted nls_cp437 4384 2 (autoclean) agpgart 29824 0 (autoclean) msdos 4668 0 (unused) i810_audio 21248 0 (unused) ac97_codec 9568 0 [i810_audio] soundcore 3236 2 [i810_audio] keybdev 1664 0 (unused) usbkbd 2848 0 (unused) input 3072 0 [keybdev usbkbd] usb-uhci 20708 0 (unused) usbcore 48032 0 [usbkbd usb-uhci] lspci: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82810-DC100 GMCH [Graphics Memory Controller Hub] (rev 03) 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp. 82810-DC100 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller] (rev 03) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 82801AA PCI Bridge (rev 02) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corp. 82801AA ISA Bridge (LPC) (rev 02) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82801AA IDE (rev 02) 00:1f.2 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801AA USB (rev 02) 00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801AA AC'97 Audio (rev 02) 01:05.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc RTL8139 Ethernet (rev 10) as suggested by one of the group, i also installed libmikmod. i could not install splayer - it requires some other .deb package and i am not too sure how to install packages that do not reside on my cd! anyway, is there a clue about what is wrong from my lsmod and lspci? thanx - yet again sandip -=- Dinner not ready!
