Hi, I get this message when logging into my account & in the root account also. "error while initializing the sounddriver /dev/dsp can't be opened (permission denied) The sound server will continue using the null output device. From the kde menu clicking on information > sound brings up this message: "There was an error loading the module the diagnostics is:" No diagnostics are provided. PCI Info gives: 00:07.5 Multimedia audio controller:, VIA technologies, Inc. AC97 AudioController (rev50) Subsystem: VIA Technologies. Inc Unknown device 4511 flags: medium devsel, IRQ 11 I/O ports at 9c00 (size=256) I/0 ports at a000 (size=4) I/O ports at a400 (size=4)
Also although I have followed the grub help, man pages and advice here I still cannot get debian or slackware to boot from the grub floppy. I almost always get an "error 15 file or filesystem not found" I haven't installed grub to the MBR because I wanted to be sure I could boot everything from it and I can't. I can boot SuSE and windoze. Also entering grub from the command line and doing "root (" didn't get me disks/disk info. Would lilo be easier to set-up? Debian is on hdb5 a logical partition. I boot to deb & slack from a floppy.
