My sound card wasn't working properly earlier but after I went into root
and did a sndconfig to connect it.. I now can hear my CD's but not the
regular computer sounds? I think something's not connecting properly but
I have no idea what it is... I'm using Mandrake 8.1

Ralph, not sure I know enough to help, but here goes: if you are running
Gnome, you have to have the sound demon running, which is called esd.
Look for it and turn it on. Sometimes all you need is esd at a command
prompt; other times you have to load the launcher into you panel or
somewhere so
Alvin,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mirandar]$ esd
esd: Esound sound daemon already running or stale UNIX socket
/tmp/.esd/socket
This socket already exists indicating esd is already running.
Exiting...
and I don't know what launcher looks like or where it's located at.

Ralph, not sure I know
Try running your Audio Mixer or XMixer from the
Multimedia submenu. Even though the volume levels are
up high enough, I don't get any sounds except from my
CD player after a reboot until I have run one of the
two. Audio Mixer is my choice.
This is my first post here, I just found the list
