I installed Red Hat 9, a default workstation install if I recall, and installed fluxbox. Anyway the point is, when using xmms to play music I usually get an error using sound card message, or something to that effect. It recommends I make sure my sound card is installed / detected properly (it is), and that no other device or application is using it. Since it's the first app I run, I assume nothing else is using it. I have to reboot at least once for it to start up properly. So why is that? I thought linux was suppose to reduce the number of reboots needed to get everything running right. What needs to be fixed so I have sound on every boot, not every second or third?
