    Ok so I have Debian installed, and I like it a lot, but I can’t get the
    sound card to work, can’t even get ALSA to work. So I decided to just run
    Knoppix from the CD drive, and it successfully detects my sound card, and it
    works there. I really don’t want to use Knoppix, just want to use Debian
    ‘sarge’. But without sound, kinda not useful for some other things I want
    to do (ie MythTV). So I know that the linux kernel 2.6 has ALSA already
    built in, found a website that walked me through it but it didn’t work. I
    reboot and LILO is really screwed up. Anyone have some suggestions.
    Especially how to update sarge to kernel 2.6. Thanks and would appreciate
    it.

    btw I do have a supported sound card, esnoiqs 1370, snd-es1370 (or ens1370
    can’t remember right now). In debian if I click on the sound icon, it says
    can’t find /dev/mixer/sound or /dev/sound/mixer no device exists. Don’t
    know if that helps. Thanks.
