Hi all folks, RH 8.0 KDE 3.0.3 ========= When I login as USER a window named 'dsp-kate' started automatically. It can't be closed but can be shrunk to bottom tool-bar. This would not happen when login as ROOT. I have removed "Kate" with no improvement. It still occurred as USER. I found follows; # locate dsp /dev/mdspstat /dev/mdsp1 /dev/mdsp2 /dev/mdsp3 /dev/mdsp4 /dev/mdsp5 /dev/mdsp6 /dev/mdsp7 /dev/mdsp8 /dev/mdsp9 /dev/mdsp10 /dev/mdsp11 /dev/mdsp12 /dev/mdsp13 /dev/mdsp14 /dev/mdsp15 /dev/mdsp16 /dev/dsp0 /dev/dsp1 /dev/dsp56k /dev/dsp2 /dev/dsp3 /dev/adsp0 /dev/adsp1 /dev/adsp2 /dev/adsp3 /dev/dsp /dev/adsp /dev/dsp10 /dev/dsp11 /dev/dsp12 /dev/dsp13 /dev/dsp14 /dev/dsp15 /dev/dspW0 /dev/dspW1 /dev/dspW2 /dev/dspW3 /dev/dspW4 /dev/dspW5 /dev/dspW6 /dev/dspW7 /dev/dspW8 /dev/dspW9 /dev/dspW10 /dev/dspW11 /dev/dspW12 /dev/dspW13 /dev/dspW14 /dev/dspW15 /dev/dmdsp0 /usr/bin/esddsp /usr/bin/artsdsp ..... ..... This mistake happened on installing Alsa-sound-driver. Any suggestion to correct this problem. Thanks in advance.
