U think Acer tech cant read or use google? Instead why not buy acer's / equviv chinese stuff install debian and sell. It might require some effort initially but subsequent installs are a breeze. Regarding sound u have not installed some module or lib. Eg if u use alsa u need esd-alsa for using several progs that use esd libs. Selecting one may not neccessarily select the other. Strange how i never have a problem with any hardware (except trashy closed video drivers). -- Rgds JTD -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
