Hello all, It seems like FC2 likes to start artsd and esd on its own and that causes a lot of my sound problems. I have not found any way to stop both process from starting. For example, whenever I logged into gnome, both esd and artsd are started (I confirmed this via ps -ef ). After killing both processes, they seem to respawn whenever certain applications (I am not sure about which apps yet, but amsn and flash seems to be the culprits for me) tries to use sound. Of course this does not play well with other apps that needs to output sound such as RealPlayer, mplayer, rhythmbox, etc. Any idea how to solve this? Cheers, Hesty __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo! Mail - 100MB free storage! http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail
