hi, using gnome-2.8, sound system used to work fine, but since experienced a hard disk bad blocks problem, gnome-volume-control cannot start again, always popup a dialog says: "Sorry, no mixer elements and/or devices found" doing `cp sound.wav /dev/dsp` still cause noise heard as before; some application can play sound, but cannot play & record at the same time `cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV audio` just has no effect. what could be the problem ? _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
