I re-installed alsa and there is still no /etc/rc.d/init.d/alsasound
nothing. Dinking with arts didn't do anything. I can fire up any game
and there is no problems. I can play mp3s and oggfiles with nary a burp
in the barrel. It's on DVD playback that there is a complaint. Beats the
heck outa me. Ric


Since the problem only occurs when you are doing DVD playback
shouldn't you be checking the DVD packages for compatibility? Which
repositories have you enabled to get your multimedia packages?
