It means no other app has it open, maybe some other meaning of "busy" is in mind. I just looked at the sources in ./src/snd.c ... can you copy the last couple of things it says before it fails? It should say something like "Opening /dev/dsp for writing" or similar. Another tool is strace, just run the thing as strace gmfsk add whatever gmfsk args you usually use at the end. After it stops spewing nonsense, review the last few dozen lines looking for lines referring to /dev/dsp, and cut and paste them here. -Andy -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
