I have a SPARCstation LX running Debian GNU/Linux on a 2.2.x kernel... I
have sound working satisfactorily... I have to load DBRI modules in order
to do it. I do have a Sun Speakerbox, however, and that I believe has
added sound hardware. Nonetheless, I do an "insmod audio; insmod dbri" and
I've got beautiful sounds coming out of it.
