I'm not getting any failed messages during boot up. I have too many audio packages installed. I think the basic installation CD installs too many options. Having about 10 audio tools is a bit much. I have noticed during the graphical boot up, whenever I see an unhappy face next to the star, it usually is followed by some sort of error. Is this true? This is strange, as I've never had problems with 7.0, 7.1 and 7.2. I'll keep every one posted. Oh yeah, on several occasions, when I logged out to console and typed in" shutdown all, LM8 ran a systems performance check and froze at anacron. But that could be something else. I know the sound dies if I update libarts. Should I update kdelibs? Gnome and Enlightenment Has LM8 introduced a gremlin to my Linux box? Anyways, I have to go look for my can of Raid. Maybe it will help. I'll try your suggestions first as sound has never been a problem until libarts and too many sound modules came into the picture. Thanks for the tips.
