Hi.
This may be an often asked question, but I will ask
it anyway.
I was wondering if Debian has plans to
implement a user-friendly
application to configure sound cards.
For example, I use a SoundBlaster Awe64 pnp card
and although
I narrowly managed to setup
my /etc/isapnp.conf and add "sb" to
my /etc/modules. For a newbie, this was a nightmare
task, and
even though I can get sound through my speakers
now, certain
apps like esound and gnome make a nice distortion
sound instead
of playing wav files, and I get a nice IRQ7 error
in my dmesg. No sign
of MIDI either.
Other dists have a sound configure app. Will Debian
be implementing
a similar app that will also set up things like
Plug N Play, MIDI, Esound,
necessary /dev permissions?
You guys are doing an AWESOME job! I love my Debian
system! Thanks!
D.Radel.
