More often than not, this is caused by a full partition, usually /tmp will be
the culprit. Check to see if any of your partitions are full or very close
to it.

Look into rplayd. I use it with a diskless Iopener. I run X from the
host machine using ltsp, and sound events get passed to the client
machine's kernel/sound driver. There is some latency, but it's fun ;^)
I've got a HOWTO on the Iopener setup on my web space:
http://home.centurytel.net/ste
I dont' know that what you are attempting is possible. Sound is not
related to X in any way. Its linked to the soundcard, module, & device
on the local system. Sending the sound played on one system to the
speakers of another system would be non-trivial at best.

Hi,
perhaps the question I needed to ask was "what are some good virus
detection tools to have on hand". I am very careful about what
and where I download, but that alone is no guarantee that something
(trojan, etc) won't somehow slip in. I just wanted to know what

Hi All,
Could anyone recommend a good (free?) antivirus prog that also
cleans if it finds something? I know there are alot of demo freebies
out there, but I have searched sourceforge, linuxapps and others
and come up empty handed.
