In Linux there are two families or type sound drivers: ALSA and OSS drivers. DSL install by defect drivers from OSS type.
Also sndconfig try to install a OSS drive but in your case sndconfig utility is useless because sndconfig do not know the sound controller. Perhaps not exist a OSS driver for that sound controller but fortunately exist a ALSA driver.

device 1002:4370

That signify the sound controller is IXP SB400 from ATI vendor according to I read here.ATI ALSA drivers
Then returning to that said cbagger01 you must try ALSA.
I suggest first do so: Install ALSA, but do all booting DSL from the LiveCD.

1. Boot from DSL CD with the boot option "dsl alsa"

2. Install the 3 following MyDSL extensions:

-gnu-utils.dsl
-dsl-dpkg.dsl
-If your DSL is v2.0 or v2.1 then install alsa.dsl, else install alsadebs.dsl. (IMPORTANTE: Choose the correct file for your DSL version or the ALSA driver not will work)

3. Execute the script ALSA install by go to MyDSL -> ALSA menu.

4. Try play sound

All that is lost when the computer reboot but if you have success then I will say how to do permanent the configuration.

My DSL Laptop also quiet. When i follow this command..
-------------------------------------------------------------
Open ATerminal and write commands:

dsl@box:~$ sudo su

------------------------------------------
Why I get ...

bash-2.05b#

instead of this

root@box:/home/dsl#
---------------------------------------------------

Who get the same result like me? I install Frugal on SonyPCG-505G with syslinux.iso. Sorry for Noop question.

Reidy-: Use select with the left mouse button and paste with the middle button.

Pradi:
the .bash_profile is probably different or not loaded (maybe a login shell is needed), thats all.

It doesn't matter though, its just a cosmetic thing - you still have root access.

Thanx ^thehatsrule^

I use Ubuntu and now DSL on Old Laptop. My DSL seem  allow me to config nothing on it. It always fresh everytime of new booting. My question posted bookmarks in Firefox also clear.
Also in bash shell, all files are opened as read only. I cannot continue to config sound.
PS. It also promt for login after su
box login:
root has been input but reflected by login incorect msg.

Which is the best method of hdd install? Now I use Frugal Install for further upgradable,I understand right?
