Multimedia :: Mixer ?

I am a compete newbie... I can't get any sound.. Can you do a step-by-step walkthrough on how to get sound going?

I tried typing in apt-get install wimx like the forum siad and I get "unknown command" for apt-get

Like I said... I am totally new to this... are all the things I need on the ISO image or did I need something else in addition to it?

thanks

I found a fix to my problem. Instead of using my PCI Creative Audigy 2 soundcard I enabled the on-board audio (AC97) card and walla.

Is there a way I can enable my PCI card though?

---oops, screwed up and can't delete it---

Disable the onboard sound in the bios. Also, while you're in the bios make sure it's not set to "Plug and Play OS"
