stephen, you must be running potato.  sdl-mixer is definitely available from
the sid and woody packages.  i don't think potato has it.   you can find out
from www.debian.org.

note that it's called "libsdl-mixer", not "sdl-mixer".

# dpkg -l "libsdl-mixer*"
||/ Name           Version        Description
