Hi-
I just decided to switch from RedHat to Debian and so far am very
impressed. I purchased a Dell Dimension 4600 and installed Woody. I
then switched to unstable. I found Crafterm's site that had the .deb
files for the kernel 2.4.21 and installed them so that my network card
would work. On that site he has a file that talks about the audio card
and the problems with the SB Live that Dell ships. So I removed that
card and enabled the onboard sound. He then talks about installing
2.4.22 of the kernel. I looked and could not find any packages to do
this, so I thought if I have to compile a kernel I might as well try out
2.6.0-test4. The comile seemed to go fine but when I boot into this new
kernel I get the following message:
Starting ALSA (unknown version): failed - ALSA modules not installed
Everything else seems to work, my NIC and video and the machine actually
seems faster. But I need sound. Ok I don't need it but I sure would
like it<grin>
I have searched Google and groups and can't find this message in anyway
that appears to fit my error. Does anyone have any ideas or pointers to
places where I can get a fix. I would even go back to a previous kernel
if need be.
Thanks for the help.
Kevin
