There were a couple threads on this, but they didn't seem to help me... and they were for earlier versions of DSL. I've been trying to install my soundcard and need make. This is what I get:

root@box:/home/Sound# apt-get install make
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
fileutils
The following NEW packages will be installed:

I'm quite new to linux, so I'm sorry if you guys are getting irritated by the same questions being asked, but the fact remains that I can't get make to install.

Your posts are no irritations at all.. please ask..
What soundcard are you working with?

This is what you should see when you reach nirvana...

That worked like a charm, nirvana was found. Thanks so much. I wonder how I missed that thread... I thought I checked through all of them. I still can't get my sound card to configure right, but that is for a different part of the forums. Since you asked though: Its a Turtle Beach Santa Cruise. Part of the problem may be that it is the Dell version and I've heard that the one Dell distributed was different from the off the shelf kind. If I can't figure it out you may be seeing a new thread in the multimedia section.
