Hi Michael,

Thanks for your feedback, but you do not want me to open the new
notebook with the soldering iron in my hands to have a look for
some link there, no? :-)) What could I do without opening the box?

Another problem, but related to this. As usual there is a racing
between aRts daemon and any other application which wants to play
sound for the /dev/dsp device. I know the solution described in
the FAQ http://freebsd.kde.org/faq.php#q9 but it seems that it does
not work with the opensound driver because this brings up devices
like /dev/dsp0, /dev/dsp1, /dev/dsp2, ... and until know I only
could manage to play anything on /dev/dsp1 (even with the osstest
tool the others are not 'saying' any beep).

In KDE one can set a timeout for aRts daemon to give away the sound
device on idle, I've set this to 6 secs, but ogle still claims on
launch that it is busy; the other solution launching ogle as

$ artsdsp ogle

does not work either. The first tests always ended up in:

$ artsdsp ogle
aRts: hijacking /dev/dsp open...
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libgthread-2.0.so.600: Undefined symbol "pthread_getschedparam"

then this phenomena went away somehow, I don't know why, I changed nothing
in the installed software; but now it always claims that sound is
busy:

$ artsdsp ogle
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.8 for DVD access
libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.8 for DVD access
	...
ERROR[ogle_audio]: Failed opening the oss audio driver at /dev/dsp1: Device busy
ERROR[ogle_audio]: odelay failed, falling back to clock sync

Do you have any idea?

Thx
