2 means that your sound card may not support mixing in hardware, which means that only one program can write to it at once. That is probably the case with your hardware. What you have to do in this instance is write to a sound server, which mixes in software and sends the result to the hardware -> esd and arts are the most common sound servers used to do this (esd in GNOME, arts in KDE). Arts used to hang in out in one of KDE's menus .... it doesn't appear to be present in RH 8.0? I've selected Open Sound System as the server and the problem persists. I Know my soundcard can play sets of sounds at once under winblows. Got to go ... thanks all Mick -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
