Re: gnome is testing appears broken

[Brendan J Simon <brendan.simon@bigpond.com>]

I added my self to the "audio" group using "usermod -G audio" and the 
/dev/dsp error message seems to have gone away.  I don't know if this 
the "correct" way to do things.  Is there a more Debian or Gnome way to 
sort out the problem or is what I have done OK??

Cheers,
Brendan Simon.
