never even heard of it, had to do aptitude search and show to learn what 
it is even.
I suppose it's probably too late (as far as diagnosing this current 
problem anyway) to install it now...
perhaps I should install it for future uses.
I hthink I may try and boot to a live system and see what happens as 
Lisi suggested,
I'm going to assume some change affected by aptitude activity in the 
past 24 hours is most likely to blame, and really hope it's not my 
mobo's on-board audio.
I have a spare video card in my desk, but no audio card.
Going through all the hassle of finding one compatible with my hardware 
and system is a little more involved then fixing a software issue.
I think just about any PCI sound card should work with Debian, and my 
hardware, though, unless I'm mistaken. I have a couple open PCI slots.

I really need to hear my Opeth (Swedish Death Metal!! \m/ ) now, for 
workout time, and I'm bummed.

Thanks,
Tony
