who knows. Linux is such a convoluted ball of worms you could spend your
whole life just trying to get ordinary mundane trivial little things to
work.
I'm in the audio group, xmms is configured properly, I can rip & encode
from cd to mp3 using grip, xmms can see the tracks on a cd & convert
them to their proper names via freedb, but neither I nor root can get
any sound when trying to play a Cd. I give up.
