more sound and other misc.

[Anne & Lynn Wheeler <lynn@xxxxxxxxxx>]

i've had numerous flavors of fc1, fc2, and fc3 on three different 
machines with sound cards ... and so far have been never been able to 
get sound working.

i just installed fc3 on new vaio vgn-a200 (wiped clean, no dual-boot) 
... got the wireless working (with the 2200 add-in stuff) and the 
controller giving ac & battery information (again following various 
directions gleaned from using search engine). however, i've abeen 
unsuccesful getting linux sound support working on this machine (sound 
is active since the bios does a little tune on power-up).

another wierd thing happened on this machine w/new fc3  ... i added 
several additional resolutions to xorg.conf. i used kde to change to 
1920x1200 ... and then because most things were much too small ... i set 
it back to 1280x1024.  it appears like the resolution has to be changed 
using both kde and gnome utilities. using kde to set it to 1280x1024 and 
then switching to gnome ... the display looks correct ... but the 
mouse/cursor position is off by about 2inches ... i have to have the 
cursor 2 inches to the right of something i'm selecting ... until i used 
the gnome utilitty to also change the resolution.
