Comments/Problems:
It worked great, except for the fact that sound under x-windows didn’t work properly. Xmms plays music using OSS, but if I try to run the mixer I can’t. All other applications trie using ALSA and every time I run them I get different iterations about ‘default device not exists’ (ALSA problem). I tried tweaking the system, but I am not that good at setting up hardware with linux. I have a TV tuner card (ATI Wonder VE) and it worked great! Excellent work!
Do you know of a way to fix the sound?
