Check out this link for sound: http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2002/09/19/FreeBSD_Basics.html Also be sure to check that you own your entire home directory (ie, /home/username). I've had some instances where I accidentally chown'd the directory to root and couldn't access my kde prefs properly. >On a side note, are there any tutorials that you know that would enable me to >install Gnome and have the choice of starting Gnome or KDE? I think you can install both of them and just change the startup command in .xinitrc, but I've never tried. Have fun, Bill PS - I've been futzing around with getting DVD playback to work.
