Thank you for telling me How to do.
I hope I haven't make any trouble here,
for this is the first time I use the mail list.

My system is Debian Sarge 3.1 r4 on the Samsung X11,
and the command 'lspci | egrep -i 'audio|multimedia'
didn't show any thing.
My sound card is called High Definition Audio Codec AD1986A.
It's like that I haven't install any sound driver,isn't ?
but I see the Alsa package is installed in my system.
