Re: nvidia CK804 sound card question



Okay, that modprobe command woke up the mixer and rexima found it with:
rexima -d /dev/mixer and took control as it had done on other computers 
I had.  I play frotz games and those have oss type sound effects in them 
I've not heard since the first days I played infocom games on dos on a 
pc all those years ago so this should be interesting.  Thanks much for 
all who have helped.  I'll put a couple more commands in the file I use 
to customize debian on this machine.
