Comments/Problems:
The install appeared to go well. I chose the LXDE desktop environment and
installed Midori and SBCL. But then I discovered that there is no sound.
There was an error message on booting that said that pcspkr was already
registered. I added the blacklist snd-pcsp line to fbdev-blacklist.conf and
that fixed the error message. But there is no evidence that anything
associated with alsa was installed. For example, /usr/sbin/alsa does not
exist. Even vi does not beep when you expect it to. I would expect that
Wheezy would come with the appropriate sound software installed.
I am in the audio group. When I look in /dev, I don't see anything like dsp
or pcm.
