Gnome Problem w/ Sound
 

I installed Etch on a PC today and did not want it to load Firefox 1.5.0.7 be default so I did not do a GUI install of Debian or "Desktop Environment" as they call it. I then ran the normal APT updates and upgrades and did the following:

This for some reason does not install Firefox or "mozilla-firefox" package as if I did a "Desktop Environment" install.

Now the problem is that once Gnome installs and I start X, the sound is always muted be default. I can open the sound options and enable and crank up the bars however this goes away when I reboot the box or kill X. Why does this happen and how do I fix this?

Anyone?

Hi try this : apt-get install --reinstall alsa-utils

then type: " alsaconf " run through the config.

thats it, all should work on boot up now.

cheers
