Re: Open Sound System Driver error
Hello,
I found htis page where somebody says alsa can be
used:
http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/201/1999/5/50/1707139/
Then I did an apt-get on alsa-base - however, during
boot time alsa complains it can't find the module snd.
I can't find the module in the modconf either - anyway
that seems to be a very minimal set of modules ! (I
installed using the first Debian cd)
Can I install the needed module or do I have to change
configurations ?
Thanks for your help,
Joris
