Ok. Try running mpg123 as root, if you have sound then you need to add your username into the audio group with: addgroup your_login audio Logout and relogin to enjoy your sound. If you can't get sound as root then you will need to investigate further: Is the module(s) loaded (/proc/modules output may be helpfull to debug)? Does /proc/devices show this line: 14 sound Does dmesg have anything usefull to say about sound? If you can modprobe and get sound working and want to always autoload you can add: alias char-major-14 ac97_or_whatever_it's_called into /etc/modutils/local. Or just add the module name into /etc/modules. --mike
