Hello

I haven't got any sound too.
Is sound module in kernel?
How do I install a Sound Blaster Pro?

Yes, it's in the kernel. Newer cards may need alsa. You can also use someUSB sound devices,like turtle beach and sound fairy.

I believe your sound card is a ISA sound card. Confirm me.

How Linux can't automatically configure Plug and Play ISA is necessary assign manually resources (port, irq, dma) to driver or use a configuration sound card utility.

Procedure using utility:

1) You need download a Debian utility from internet called: sndconfig. You can do so:

Enable (If never was enabled) APT on your DSL:
Apps >> Tools >> Enable Apt

2) Open Xterminal and write commands:

dsl@box:~$ sudo su

root@box:/home/dsl# apt-get update

3) After the process is finished, download package Debian utility

root@box:/home/dsl# apt-get sndconfig

4) Launch utility:

root@box:/home/dsl# sndconfig

Automatically will do the work.

5) Testing:

Launch XMMS player.
Click rightbutton over XMMS
Click to "Play Location" and write:

tone://1000

Click OK

You should hear a 1000 Hz tone, if all went well.
