got myself a used dell inspiron 4000 for a (very) good price, and loaded debian sid on it. it used to run winXP before i formatted it, and sound worked just fine, so this is not a hardware problem. the debian mailing list describes a similar case, but i think my problem is a little more serious then that : http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2002/debian-laptop-200206/msg00330.html i am way pass that stage...
