[PlanetCCRMA] Still no sound ...

Ah, ... I just assumed that you got your later alsa packages through 
Planet CCRMA.  Maybe Ferenando just hasn't yet upgraded alsa to that 
version (1.0.3).

I'm still a bit confused since Synaptic seems to say that I've got 
1.0.1, but when I  do cat /proc/asound/version, it responds with 1.0.0.

In the mean time, I seem to have broken things again, starting with 
Konqueror crashing for no apparent reason, and now my sounds have gone 
away again...

I'll have to trouble-shoot a bit and see if I can fix it...

thanks again,
Bruce
