Never could get sound to worky on my Gnome either ... as for crackling I fixed that :) With an eraser. yank soundcard, take white eraser (for preference anyway, use pink if necessary) GENTLY wipe it across the contacts on the card. Blow off remaining dust, if theres a fan, blow it out gently to get rid of dust, and make sure theres no dust in the slot or on the contacts. Reseat card, should be fine. -- Femme Good Decisions You boss Made: "We'll do as you suggest and go with Linux. I've always liked that character from Peanuts." - Source: Dilbert
