I gotta say that THIS PLACE IS AWESOME.... it is exactly what i was looking for people to help each other out Linux!! Anyway, i just installed RH 7.1 on my IBM.... The speakers aren't working, Aussie, i know you answered this before, so i logged into root and typed in 'chmod 666 /dev/dsp* and all that.... but i'm still stumped, said it was too few arguments..... prob is that i see the song playing on the screen, but no sound outta the speakers :-/

user acc'ts.... i know how to /usr/sbin/adduser and all that, but i was wondering the command to delete a user?? help me out?

so noone knows how to delete an account?

userdel

Redhat has a console utility called "sndconf" or something like that, you might want to give that a go as root and reconfigure.

dude, you guys, thanx for your help... i almost don't wnat to tell you this cause i'll go down as the greatest dumbass.... but when i was pluggin stuff in, i saw the green for teh speakers and went for it..... i never knew i had a voice modem.

looked closer and found another set... all systems go

feel free to cane me now

lol
Ah well, you get that sometimes.

Wouldn't worry about little things like that...
I needlessly flashed the BIOS for a computer that I was building for my sister - it now doesn't work. Now that's what I call a dumbass!

Go to http://www.badflash.com and you should be able to get it fixed there, they sell flash roms preloaded with bios or can reflash yours.
