Nvidia first... I had the same problem and it would seem there was something wrong with the Sarge packages for Nvidia, so they were removed. Solution: I used the ones in "unstable" and I did not need to upgrade anything that might break Debian in order to do it. I just did an apt-get for nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel-source, IIRC and then compiled the latter for my kernel. For ALSA, it worked "out of the box" for me except for one thing, I could not get oss-emu to work, so I installed alsa-base and alsa-utils and then I ran alsa-conf and that took care of the problem. 8) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]@p: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
