Have install debian/sarge(latest inteninstall) with kde gui. And am having problems getting the sound to work correctly. There is a sort of sound system but is a stuttery sound file that kind of repeats then stops(best description I can give) the sound work perfect under Knoppix so there's no problems there only with hard drive installation.

Have installed on and IBM thinkpad 390x with ess1690 sound card.

regards
Andrew
