Hello people, I have some problems with sound on my system. I use gnome. When i try to play a DVD movie or listen to a mp3 or cd *often* the sound doesn't work. i have enabled "Enabled sound server startup" in Preferences -> Sound. Then my sound was working yesterday, but just today it didnt work anymore. Checking to see if the sound server is running with "ps -A | grep esd" in the terminal revealed that this server is running. Stil my sound doesnt work, sometimes when i try mplayer to play a dvd it says that aRts is not running, but isn`t this for kde? I use gnome and at the moment dont have kde installed. And what is Alsa? Do i need to install either aRts or Alsa? Any help here would be appreciated. I wish you all a happy and healthy 2004!! Best regards, Davy Obdam info@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
