I have a C-Media based card. What I have basically learned is that you have to compile a custom kernel to get it to work. I compiled it in and it works great now, but I could not get it to work under the debian kernels. I use make-kpkg to compile kernels under debian and it couldnt be easier. apt-get install kernel-package libncurses5-dev and apt-get build-deps kernel-image and you should have everything you need. --Scott -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
