Check permissions on /dev/dsp for "no sound" problem. Other then that, what graphics card do you use ? If it's ATI like me, compile XVidix and it will work superbly, or use good nvidia drivers which supposely work too with xv.
Other then that, enable frame buffer and drm support in kernel for your gpu.
