NEED HELP: ...installing SoundBlaster Live! DRIVER



Hi,

I just installed 3.0 (woody), and my sound driver is not working.
I have a SB Live! card.

When I do an 'lspci'...the sound card shows up as EMU10k1.

Does this mean the driver is there..just not configured properly?  Or does that tell me nothing at all?

I have already done the following:
   # adduser <username> audio
   # chmod 666 /dev/dsp /dev/mixer /dev/sequencer

I read the following in a previous relevant thread:
  "After you found out which driver to use, add it 
   to /etc/modules with some text editor. Or add

   alias sound-slot-0 yourdriverhere

   to /etc/modutils/aliases and run update-modules."

I think this is the path that I need to take...but if anyone could clarify with more specifics...that would be greatly appreciated.

What other steps do I need to take?

Also,
If the EMU10k1 driver doesn't come pre-installed with Debian3.0, do i need to download it and install it?  (I found it at: "http://sourceforge.net/projects/emu10k1";).

How can I find out if my current Debian install has this driver module installed?

Thanks in advance,
r o b
