I upgraded from woody to testing yesterday, and compiled
linux-2.4.21-rc1 (from kernel.org) with gcc-3.2.3 (the new default compiler).
I don't know whether it's the slightly newer kernel or the gcc, but
sound works now!

I also had this problem with iptables (not detected if compiled in
directly or as module), but this issue is also partly solved:
it only works if I compile it in, but not if I compile it as a module ...

Finally I have a stable configuration & perfect support:
onboard sound, the 2 tulip ethernet cards, ibm token ring card,
Voodoo3 3000 graphics card (with DRI support) and my Hauppauge WinTV radio
(including remote control!!!) are working flawlessly!!!


Thanks for all the hints & tips,

greetings from Ireland,
