install questions

[Dale Morris <dlm@well.com>]

I just did a fresh install of 2.2 by cd. Couple of questions:
1. I didn't have sound in my user directory, but had it as root. I did a
chmod 666 /dev/dsp and it works but I'm not sure that's the proper
permission. What's the right permission?

2. If I try to compile the kernel I get errors when I type the commands make
menuconfig and make xconfig. I have installed bin utils and also tryed it
the way it's described in the debian faq with make-kpkg. The make menu
config says I'm  missing Ncurses, although I have installed the ncurse5-dev
package. I'm probably missing a package here, but I'm not sure which one.


thanks
