Installing Multimedia in Debian
Published on 01 January 2005
7. Others (multimedia, infrared, bluetooth)
The following command shows all the modules that were loaded.
lsmod
Sound card
I had no problem with the sound card. The driver i810 was detected correctly and loaded by Debian on startup.
MP3 and other players
apt-get install xmms xine
Infrared
apt-get install irda-common irda-utils lirc lirc-x xmms-lirc
xmms-lirc is used to remote control the XMMS player (a WinAmp clone) using an infrared device.
Bluetooth
Not tested yet! There is no Bluetooth on any of the computers I work on, and I left my Bluetooth USB adapter back in Pennsylvania.
