I'd say it seems you have to load the driver for your chipset first, but apparently this driver is built in your kernel: fernst@live:~$ grep -i via82cxxx /boot/config-2.4.18-bf2.4 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX=y CONFIG_SOUND_VIA82CXXX=m (I started just like you going from a Woody install to testing/unstable) The 2.4.18 driver is supposed to work for VT82C586A/B/VT82C686/A/B/VT8233, while the 2.4.19 add support for VT8233/A/C and 2.4.20 and above know about VT8235, so it looks like you have to upgrade at least to 2.4.19, depending on what you _really_ have. Try installing one of the kernel-image-2.4.22-* where this driver is included as a module or try to roll your own. Cheers, Flo
