I never had problems with the audio. For testing purposes I commented out the lines for the audio modules in /etc/modprobe.conf and then hand loaded the dummy sound module so the programs would think something was there. $ sudo /sbin/modprobe snd-dummy >BTW - mplayer was easier to build on this box, but the system locks hard >with garbage (same garbage every time) on the screen. maybe I need to >remove some capabilities from XF86config? Not sure what you could pull out. You might try switching video drivers. For example, use the frame buffer device instad of whatever you normally use for your video card. If you have a spare card of a different make you could try that also and see if it changes anything. Gus -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
