A friend give my a SoundBlaster Live card and I installed it in my AmigaOne G4.

I reinstalled debian Linux following carefully all steps but i can't get any sound of it.

open a shell

modconf

answer the questions like you did when you first installed debian

select kernal/sound/pci/emu10k

then snd-emu10k1

select kernal/sound/acore/oss

then snd-pcm-oss

then you need a sound mixer to set the levels

apt -get -f install aumix

once aumix is installed

run aumix from the shell and set the levels

apt -get -f install xmms

this is a mp3 / cdplayer etc you can now test your sound output

open a shell

type

ls -al /dev/dsp

look at the file permissions

should look like this

crwxrwxrwx    1 root     audio     14,   3 Mar 14  2002 dsp

if it doesn't

chmod 777 /dev/dsp should do it
