[K12OSN] terminal audio global setting

[Jim Anderson]

Petre,

I tried the knoppix disk and it confirmed that the
terminals have a CS4236 chip.  I tried just using
snd-cs4236 in lts.conf, without any other parameters
and I've seemed to have made some progress.

When the terminals boot it shows that the sound module
is active but it can find something in /dev/dsp.  I
need to install the rest of the sound files it seems. 
I did not install them initially when I set up the
server.

My problem now is I can't connect to the k12ltsp
repos... it seems the repos are down.  Is there a way
to access the install disks so I can select the sound
files?  Do I have to treat this like an upgrade,
booting from the install media?

Thanks for your continuing help.

Jim

PS - I am only at this server on Wednesdays.
