If it is a sound card and ALSA drivers are installed, run lsmod and look for modules beginning with snd. Also run lspci (if it is a PCI device). The name of the device/chip often also is part of the driver name. And of course, use Google Groups and the list archive at lists.debian.org. best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 ICQ #17079270 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps-sarge.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
