Darren,
the Sarge version of Demudi is unofficial [actually, the source below is
Guenter Geiger's own development version], so use with caution. try it
by adding this to your apt-get sources:
deb http://devel.demudi.org/demudi sarge demudi
then 'apt-get update'
if you want to use the Demudi kernel, you will still have to do a few
things:
1) first, after upgrading to Sarge, 'apt-get install demudi-base'. once
the Alsa, Jack and kernel packages have been installed, add the line
initrd=/initrd.img
to your lilo.conf BEFORE rebooting [don't forget the 'lilo' prompt
after this...]
2) mkdir /dev/shm
3) add the following line to /etc/fstab:
none /dev/shm shm defaults 0 0
[this is a virtual file system which Jack uses. you will run Jack as
user, not as root. if you run it as root, it will make a logfile in
/dev/shm that will jam up everything, and you will have to remove this
file to continue.]
4) reboot. if all goes well, you will boot into Demudi kernel, and then
you can 'apt-get install demudi-soundapps'.
5) Demudi uses info from an app called Discover to configure your Alsa
settings for your soundcard. this wasn't too reliable last I checked, so
if Alsa doesn't keep your soundcard info after each reboot, I recommend
you configure it manually, with info from the Alsa soundcard matrix on
the Alsa site, in the following places:
/etc/asoundrc
/etc/modutils/aliases
look here for more tips on this if you don't know how to do this:

good luck,
Derek
