Version 1.9 works with: -All Open Sound System platforms. Explicitly tested are LinuxÂ, FreeBSD, NetBSD and BSDI. -Solarisâ based machines. IRIXÂ based machines. - The ALSA soundcard driver. - HP-UXÂ based machines. I might be wrong, but i think it must be compiled with "--enable-alsa" flag or something like that. Andrea

So, what would be the procedures to downgrade a knoppix install to sarge/sid? If there are weird problems (none of which I've had yet, in two months) I'd rather correct them before they manifest then have to fix afterwords. Surely the only solution is not to do a hdd wipe and reinstall via the sarge beta installer or the new anaconda beta installer, I should be able to just ?downgrade? my knoppix install to standard debian. Anyone know the specific differences in packages and repositories between a vanilla debian sarge/sid and knoppix? thanks. and sorry again for the direct reply. jaz

There is a utility that I > really like called dsniff. It is a very cool app. dsniff is not in woody, which I use. I tried tcpdump during connection: #tcpdump -w istrpwd #strings istrpwd but it showed nothing similar to a password of mine. I can't believe the only way is a C compilation as previously suggested, which is a bit beyond my experience (ok, I did compile kernels, but with make-kpkg is a different story).

I would expect that the safest bet would be to have all mixer options enabled by default. Anyway I didn't investigate that far. Also on closer inspection it seems the above bugreport doesn't actually cover this exact problem. Anders
