I don't get any sound out of the system at all. Running one of the

Yeah. That should give you some white noise. Any chance you

the appropriate channels and turn up their volume (see alsamixer --

Oops. So long since I have had the sound running that I completely
forgot that alsa has the ridiculous default of muted sound.
I just tried the alpha-alsa.patch mentioned earlier in this thread
but it
makes no difference.
Well that does work for me.
And I've just realised that the patched module I compiled and
installed was never loaded as I had an older kernel still running on
the system. I will have to run the tests again, and will also try
the patched debian kernel you recommend. It will be tonight (NZ
time) before I can do that.
