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.

PS.
To compile the deb source you need the debian package management
tools.
e.g. dpkg-dev, task-debian-devel

        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!

        Sincerely,

        Mike Hebel

        Here's the deb file. I included as an attachment. I complied it on my
        Ultra 5/10.
