Summary of the thread: Without esound there is an uncaught exception when trying to play a custom sound in Preferences->Mail & Newsgroups->Notification even with the official builds of SM from mozilla.org. Timestamp: 09.01.2012 07:18:12 Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE) [nsISound.play]" nsresult: "0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://communicator/content/pref/preferences.js :: PlaySound :: line 99" data: no] The solution may be using pulseaudio. On the other hand, removing pulseaudio is usually one of the first recommendations in the wine groups when problems occur. ;) Now, removing esound is no longer a problem for gentoo-user. I may take it upstream to mozilla.org. Hartmut -- Usenet-ABC-Wiki http://www.usenet-abc.de/wiki/ Von Usern fuer User :-)
