Hey, I installed debian testing onto my laptop, i have setup my wm and got it how i want now (thanks to the list for that :)) ummmm but i have another problem...
The sound card on the laptop didnt work right off... and from previous experiance with it on other distro's i know/knew i had to add it to modprobe.conf and install alsa (from apt) so i did so. The problem is that now the touchpad/track point (little stick in the middle of keyboard) has disappeard... before i put the entry into modprobe.conf i did a cat /dev/psaux and /dev/input/mice and both was outputting things. but now i have added the sound card to modprobe.conf i have lost them, when i try to do a cat /dev/psaux and /dev/input/mice i just get something about not finding the device... so the question is really how can i have sound AND mouse on the same system. The system is a HP Omnibook 4150 Cpu P2 300mhz, 368Mb Ram, 4gb Drive, Soundcard is a cs4236 (i think, i cant check at the moment as i am not at home) It runs on a neomagic 256 chipset, but the neomagic sound card driver doesnt work, i know from trying before :) Any help would be great!! Thanks Grant. ps = if i remove the entry from modprobe.conf the mice/mouse works fine... but with no sound.
