After trying out DSL on my dad's pc (6.5 year old Dell, I never knew it could still be this fast :D) I found the sound not working. After doing some investigation, the only logical conclusion was that the Turtle Beach Montego soundcard was not recognized :p. I haven't had much time to run through dmesg, but I'll check asa I can get my hands on that machine again. But is it possible that the OSS drivers for this card is erm... like... not included?

try "modprobe au8820"

then try your music again.

Another alternative is to try the alsadebs.dsl .
Read the info file on it for installation instructions.

modprobe: Can't locate module au8820
too bad ;)  it's not in /lib/modules/2.4.26 or any of it's subfolders. I hope it can be added to the next release again :) I want to use this as a Live distro only, so having to 'install' everything everytime I boot this (I don't want any HD access) is pretty 'annoying'

I was at school, and i had forgotten my DSL cd. (BAD JP!)

It looks like some of the Turtle cards are Soundblacter compatible, but the "au88xx" driver is not in dsl, so if you want it, you can get the source frm here and compile it and saqve it on a floppy or use flashdrive.

Evidently, these cards are a pain to get working with the default kernel driver, anyway.

Hope you get it workin'.
