Sound and Modem issue
 

I have a Compaq presario running Debian lenny. I have a nVidia Corporation nForce3 Audio sound card/modem. How can i get it to work? Thanks in advance for any help.

Do you get any error messages? Have you checked alsamixer to make sure nothing is muted? What is it doing or not doing? Some more details would be helpful.

its not doing anything, and when i try modem commands it gives me "bash: echo: write error: Input/output error"
