In short: I can't play ogg files on my Debian Sarge (2.4.27) machine, but I can if I boot off a Knoppix live CD (v3.6, kernel 2.4.27). i.e. the drivers I have installed on my Debian Sarge machine aren't working. I'd like to set things up to use the sound drivers that Knoppix uses, but I don't know how. Does anyone out there know how I'd go about doing this? Here's the output of /sbin/lsmod on Debian Sarge:

But, I can't rmmod via82cxxx on Debian: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo rmmod via82cxxx Password: via82cxxx: Device or resource busy In case it's useful, here's the output of ogg123 (looks the same for both Debian and Knoppix): Audio Device: OSS audio driver output Playing: ogg/king_crimson/sleepless_the_concise_king_crimson/red.ogg Ogg Vorbis stream: 2 channel, 44100 Hz Title: Red Artist: King Crimson Genre: 17 Date: 1993 Album: Sleepless (The Concise King Crimson) Any help would be much appreciated!
