I had tried that, David, and only got the offer of 'xmms', repeating shows:-
------------- Leary:/home/john# apt-get install alsa-xmms Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Note, selecting xmms instead of alsa-xmms Suggested packages: unzip Recommended packages: libmikmod2 libvorbis0 The following NEW packages will be installed: xmms 0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 40 not upgraded. Need to get 2013kB of archives. After unpacking 6255kB of additional disk space will be used. Get:1 http://ftp.uk.debian.org testing/main xmms 1.2.10-1 [2013kB] 25% [1 xmms 507879/2013kB 25%]30.3kB/s 49s 29% [1 xmms 601999/2013kB 29%]29.6kB/s 47s ----I aborted at this stage---- ---------------
A package search on Debian.org in both Sarge and Testing failed to show 'alsa-xmms'. Very puzzling to me.
Thanks for the response. John.
