Progress, but still no sound.
I removed the module for the motherboard soundcard (via82cxxx_audio),
and re-probed the emu10k1 module, and using sound no longer hangs;
timidity sits there for about as long as it should to play the MIDI
file, but I still don't hear any sound. The mixer has the volume set
at 100% and my speaker is turned up to maximum. (So it will be pretty
loud when I finally get it working.)
You're running the OSS drivers. You don't want to do this. Some ways
out include:
1) You follow Tim's advice to install the AGNUlA kernel.
2) You install kernel 2.6 which includes ALSA. (It's what I do, although
I always compile my own kernel.)
3) you build your own kernel as well.
4) You stay with Debian's packages and install the package "alsa-modules"
which matches your installed kernel package. apt-get will take care
that the right one gets installed.
I would recommend to do 4) first, its the easiest way.
"apt-cache search alsa-modules " shows the available packages, "dpkg -l
kernel-image\* " will show what kernel package you are running.
You can probably reuse your old alsa configuration with the new
kernel.
Ciao
