Margot the statement above regarding never having heard of lspcidrake was not 
entirely accurate. You actually posted a response to my message detailing 
what one could expect to be found in the draksound troubleshooting dialogue. 
Of course having too many 'suggestions' from such busybodies as myself it's 
easy to be confused. After this response I'll go back to "lurk" mode. (-;

- From what I just saw on the list archive I use

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=mandrake-newbie&r=1&w=2

it would seem that sympa is playing "Hide the post" again. <sigh>

All of these commands need to be run as super user or root. If one of the 
commands suggested doesn't appear to have an entry in the system you're 
working with don't panic. Syntax and spelling, as well as any required 
capitalizations, are extremely important in any 'nix system.

Just for grins'n'giggles (and as an illustration of how to prevent hair loss 
<g>) open a terminal as super user or root and type:

dra <Tab>

by which I mean hit the Tab key. That's the bash auto-completion function. It 
may actually help you in some situations.

I'll step off again, you have plenty of help, and seem to have enough 
determination to figure this out with that help.

Good luck;
Charlie
