Unfortunately I'm sure gmix will not work for me - I'm running "headless".
As for the compiling issue - that explains it. One of the packages that had not been finished by dselect was the task-debian-devel and I'm pretty sure that I didn't have dpkg-dev selected. Makes sense. The CD-player thing is a kind of a pain. I've never known a pre-ultra SPARC that had an internal CD connection to work properly. You almost always see them like mine with small patch cords running from the front of the box to the back. I may be wrong on this one but I'm pretty sure I'm not.

I'm using gmix from the gnome-media package. Unfortunatelly the cd player does not work properly. I cannot get audio from the cd to the aduio chip although there's a connection between the cdreader and the mainboard. Gabor PS. To compile the deb source you need the debian package management tools. e.g. dpkg-dev, task-debian-devel From: "Mike Hebel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thanks again for the file - it installed fine with dpkg and works exactly as expected! Just a curiosity question - did you have any problems compiling it on your system? (I had problems getting it compiled but that may have been related to the other problem I found - not all the packages from dselect were installed and configured. Doh!) Does anyone out there have mixerctl ported to Debian? I looked for it on the searchable package database on www.debian.org and on ftp.us.debian.org but didn't see it anywhere. I tried using aumix instead but it doesn't seem to want to work. (Either outputs a bunch of blank lines and an error message or it does things like not listing the settings for anything on any channel. I think it might not work properly with the DBRI mixer but that's just my Debian newbie guess.) Any ideas? Thanks again for the help!
