I think you might have misinterpreted Alex's comments. I think he was trying
to give you a good-natured ribbing more than anything else. Usually when
people pepper their email with smilies, they're not trying to be rude. :)

Ah... now THIS is meaningful. I had a bear of a time getting this identical
piece of dung working on my otherwise "cherry" computer. This next bit
assumes that you're running sid. I don't know how it is on potato. You'll
need to download the 'alsa-drivers' packages that matches your kernel-package
version (e.g., I had to install 'alsa-drivers-2.4.18-k7'). You'll also want
to install the 'alsaconf' package (although at last check, it was somewhat
broken on sid, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it). You'll want to
select the "VIA 82xxx" chipset stuff as the driver. Hopefully, this will make
things work. If not, send another message.
