It was corrected and ldconfig did not throw any error. Also, the Pulseaudio-8.0 which was compiled earlier '--without-caps' option was recompiled without any error. The Linux kernel was also recompiled to get sound working. Now, I have: 1. Firefox 2. Seamonkey 3. Gimp 4. Mplayer 5. ePDFViewer 6. MuPDF 7. Abiwod 8. Libreoffice 9. Alsamixer 10. PNMixer 11. File Managers (3 types) 12. GParted 13. Zenmap 14. SSH 15. Rsync 16. Fuse 17. Window Managers (IceWM, Openbox, Fluxbox, Sawfish and LXDE) etc. I can connect pen drives and external HDDs for file transfers. These packages are sufficient for day-today computing. The browsers play YouTube video and audio very well. I have some TODOs as follows: 1. Make Sane / xSane to work with HP MFD 1200 series and recompile VLC which requires a good amount of efforts. 2. Try Initramfs 3. Trim the present build or make a new one and create an installer in a flash drive with its capacity exceeding that of a DVD disc using Squashfs to create awareness especially among the engineering students with the help of my friend who is in constant with engineering and arts colleges. The idea is to popularize LFS and its excellent books written after huge efforts. He is at present distributing customized Linux in a flash drive of 32GB capacity. 4. A Live CD containing required packages for building LFS. Thanks again. VSN
