Hmm...I remember having some sound-related probs too. It's all working now, so for your information, here are my settings : I've turned ALSA off ( Control Panel --> [root passw] --> System --> Services --> ALSA deselected ). Then, in the other (local - Small icon in kicker) Control Center --> Sound --> Sound Server, I've enabled aRts on KDE startup. There's a button : "Test sound" that should play the opening fanfare. Finally, in my "/etc/lilo.conf" the append line looks as follows : append=" hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi devfs=nomount " Especially, the "nomount" made everything OK. HTK Kaj Haulrich
