1 Hello,
2
3 I've got a clevo portable runing a 2.6.9-r4 kernel. Upon boot, I get this
4 popup (kde) message:
5
6 X Informational - artsmessage

8 Source server information message:
9 Error while initialzing the sound driver:
10 Device: default can be opened for playback (no such file or directory)
11 The sound server will continue, using the null output device.

14 What did I miss, in the kernel? something in kde configs/desktop setting?
15
16 Alsa, Jack and a host of audio software is installed but nothing works. I
17 can get kscd to play a cd, it reads the name of the song, says it's at
18 40% percent volume, but no sound. I'm not certain I've activated everything
19 in the kernel.
