n and purpose and the integration is very good, most packages work out of the box. What I find confusing is that for some people there seems to be a separation between Debian multimedia and DeMuDi in their minds, which might account for people not finding what they are looking for. ;) See Debian policy on multimedia thread. -- cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk/tim

I'm wondering whether you needed to load the module with further options or possibly load further modules. Are you familiar with this?: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Intel&card=ICH+southbridge+HD-audio+and+modem.&chip=ICH6%2C+ICH6M%2C+ICH7%2C+ESB2&module=hda-intel You appear to have ALSA configured.
