OSS and ALSA are linux sound systems, ALSA is newer and better but OSS is easier to setup.
Thanks makuyl... This is the output
Code:
I saw the little runt sitting there on a log
I asked him his name and in a raspy voice he said Yoda
Y-O-D-A Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
Well I've been around but I ain't never seen
A guy who looks like a Muppet but he's wrinkled and green
Oh my Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
How he can raise me in the air just by raising his hand
Oh my Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda, Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo Yoda

Well, the modules look ok to me, although I'm no expert on this.
Does alsa see the card? cat /proc/asound/cards
Can you play any audio? play somefile.wav
Have you ran alsaconf? alsaconf
Tried pumping up the volumes? alsamixer or aumix
Post the output of: cat /proc/asound/cards
Run "alsamixer" and pump up the volumes
Post also the output of: ls -l /dev/dsp0 /dev/audio /dev/audio0
Try first to get this to work in a console, then GUI
Yes I am sure, However I have insalled alsa but am stuck on this point:
If you get an "init_module: No such device" error when you run this modprobe command, make sure that you uninstall all the sound related modules first.
When I run lsmod this is the output BUT I am not sure what to uninstall.
