First see if sndconfig (as root) can bring your sound back. Secondly, I would advise you to get GPS (Graphical PS). http://gps.seul.org This will show you all running processes in a window and allows you to Hang Up (SIGHUP) or kill (SIGKILL) processes through a buttonpress. You can also sort processes on prio, CPU usage and more, to make finding them easier. hope this helps, Paul -- If a person gives you his time, he can give you no more precious gift. -Frank Tyger http://nlpagan.net - Linux Mandrake 8.2 - Sylpheed 0.7.7 Help Microsoft combat software piracy: give Linux to a friend today!
