OK, this is what worked. Thank you all for your assistance. (No play
command though)

(SuSE 6.2)

1. Now, is there a way to set sound up automatically when the machine
boots? I've compiled my own kernel and perhaps I should have made the sound
thingy a non-module?   Or is there a boot file I should modify?

2. There should be some sort of audio mixer in console mode, but I'm not
able to discover it. Any clues?

3. Every time I try to rub KMIX in KDE it tells me that it isn't able to
write to
   /dev/mixer
and aborts?

Thanks for your patience.



Cheers
Rick
