Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] re: snd-via82xx full-duplex

[Alien999999999 <alien999999999 users sourceforge net>]

and how can I correct the alsa install? (the install is rather automatic in 
Mandrake, I don't really have anything to say.

I tried alsaconf, but that gave some errors about whiptail & erorr not being 
present.

is there something I have to add to the /etc/modules.conf ?

thanks for the help so far...
