Comment out what you do not need. The important part is the universe and
multiverse stuff. Keep in mind that official support does not include these
sources, though I am sure this could give you support neccessary.
Be aware that some lines may be wrapped.
As for your sound card, what is it? Is it supported by ALSA? Of interest to me
are your loaded modules (lsmod) and the output of lspci -v as well as anything
relevant from /var/log/dmesg, syslog etc.
I am not sure what you mean by a config tool for sound. Are you referring to the mixer (kmixer, amixer, there are a few alsa mixers)? For sound on my old P166 I needed to pass some parameters to the kernel module such as IRQ etc.

Quoting Jarrod Major <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
So I got Kubuntu on my laptop last night. Or if you prefer Ubuntu "Hoary".
After some help from Travis, I got my video resolution fixed up. Everything looks pretty now. Travis also walked me through some basic apt-get stuff. I got sshd installed as it only had the OpenSSH client installed by default.
I was a little disappointed to find that OpenOffice was the office suite of choice. I am a KOffice fan and it seems sacrilegious to have KDE and no KOffice. I went into Kynaptic then and was pleased to see meaningful categories for the software in the Ubuntu repositories. After a quick search, KOffice was not to be found.
After a Google search I found that it is not included... period. It sounds like they are considering putting it in but it's not there now.
So am I stuck with installing this from source? Is there a better way?
Also, Ubuntu's hardware detection didn't correctly configure my sound card... no surprise there, it's finicky on my ToughBook. Can anyone give me a heads-up on where I might look to find out how to configure sound in a Debian-based Distro? I have the proper device and settings recorded so I just need the config tool.
Thanks in advance, and thanks again Travis!
Jarrod
