Hello,

        After some more blind (and deaf [let's leave dumb out of this]) fumbling with 
the sound system [SB Live! 5.1, ML 9.1, KDE], I've discovered that, unlike 
9.0, the command "/sbin/fuser -v /dev/dsp" gives no responce at all.  In 9.0, 
I got:
/sbin/fuser -v /dev/dsp

                     USER        PID ACCESS COMMAND
/dev/dsp             chief      1910 f....  artsd

        I find that artsd is shown as a zombie in the Process Table[- KDE System 
Guard].  If I kill it and type artsd, it again shows up as a zombie.  Could I 
be on to something here (stranger things have happened)?  What is a zombie 
again?

With an advance of thanks,
        -Jim
