Re: making sound work?
thanks for your reply
I didn't know I have to do that; but I made it to work under the same
debian dist
(after a lot of work) without doing that although I think I made a chmod
on some /dev
entries.
I will try that, thanks again
by the way I'm on the debian user list
regards
[seems to me like I have to read some newbie debian help :-)
I thought I passed this stage :-( ]
