a) Edit the file /etc/modules and add to the end of it a line that says

Code:

snd-sb16

b) See the Java: Sun JRE/JDK Installation on Debian document I have written regarding the installation of Java on Debian.
Quick summary of the procedure (please read the whole document for all the details though):

Code:

apt-get install java-package

fakeroot make-jpkg jre-1_5_0_01-linux-i586.bin

dpkg -i sun-j2re1.5_1.5.0+update01_i386.deb
