cannot get sound on Toshiba laptop
I have a Toshiba laptop that I cannot get the sound working on.
No error messages, but nothing comes out of the speaker.
Here are the particulars:
Toshiba Satellite, model 2805-S301
Yamaha YMF754B-R sound card
Debian 3.0r0 woody
2.4.18-bf2.4 kernel

# ls -l /dev/dsp
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 3 Mar 14 14:51 /dev/dsp
I am in the audio group.
Settings/Multimedia/Sound, Sound Events tab, Play button gives
no sound.
ALSA is not installed, but I am not sure exactly which packages
to install. Do I need alsa-modules-2.4.x? All I see are
alsa-modules-2.4.16-*, nothing for 2.4.18.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
