Funny? (Sound, ppp and modules in Debian Woody 3.0)

[<mr-...@li...>]

Here is the main problem: when I press play on XMMS no sound is played but
the modem switches on (!).
I'm using kernel 2.4.9, everything is correctly installed (I hope).
I even added
    alias sound-slot-0 dmasound_paula
to etc/modutils/aliases and ran update-modules, but it didn't work.
Moreover, when I launch KDE after loading the window manager a message
appears telling something about a cpu overload problem dealing with the
sound server.

I can't connect to the internet either.
GKDial connects but drops the line as soon as authentication ends, kppp
can't access /dev/ttyS0 from users even if all the permissions and group
are set correctly (I'm in dip,
dialout etc...).
When I run kppp as root, it finds the modem, connects, but then pppd dies
(also after I chmoded it) telling that it can't find ppp (but the aliases
seem right).

I thought it could be a kernel issue so I tried 2.2.10, which panics, and
decided to give the latest 2.4.18 a try, but I can't manage to boot, as it
hangs up (does not panic or give errors at all) just after finding the hard
drive.

I'm a former user of LPPC 1999 Q3, and everything worked nice there with
2.2.10 (btw, is there any way to install a 2000 Q4?).

Any suggestion will be of *much* help :)
Thank you
Michele
