Ah, ... I just assumed that you got your later alsa packages through 
Planet CCRMA.  Maybe Ferenando just hasn't yet upgraded alsa to that 
version (1.0.3).

I'm still a bit confused since Synaptic seems to say that I've got 
1.0.1, but when I  do cat /proc/asound/version, it responds with 1.0.0.

In the mean time, I seem to have broken things again, starting with 
Konqueror crashing for no apparent reason, and now my sounds have gone 
away again...

I'll have to trouble-shoot a bit and see if I can fix it...

thanks again,
Bruce

Is it just

apt-get upgrade alsa   (?)

That just gets me "0 packages  upgraded."

apt-get install alsa

doesn't do it either.  Can you just remind me of what I should be doing 
here?  (Acually, I kind of thought that "apt-get dist-upgrade" covered 
all packages, including alsa ... not so?)

No, I think it should, however I haven't upgraded my Planet machine
since about the time RH9 came out. It runs GigaStudio all the time so I
hardly ever get to boot it into Linux anymore.

I would suggest using Synaptic and looking in that app for the right
names. Please remember that you'll never get upgrade further than
Fernando is ready to take you, so it really depends on what's available
in the Planet's library of RPM files.
