Sorta like like referring to the VIA 82cxx series of chips. You're using the 2.6 Linux kernel, which means you're using ALSA. If I go to the ALSA website, at http://www.alsa-project.org/ , and click on "supported soundcards" and scroll down to Analog Devices, I see that all of these audio chipsets are supported, by either the intel8x0 driver if it's on an Intel motherboard, or the via82xx driver if on a VIA chipset motherboard. According to Dell's customer support website, the Dimension 2350 has an Intel motherboard. So, from this quick bit of websurfing, it looks like the intel8x0 ALSA driver is the one you want. You have ALSA installed, so you may already have that driver ready. If not, you could build it against your current kernel fairly easily. -c -- Chris Metzler cmetzler@speakeasy.snip-me.net (remove "snip-me." to email) "As a child I understood how to give; I have forgotten this grace since I have become civilized." - Chief Luther Standing Bear
