worldgnat Member Registered: Oct 2004 Posts: 337 Rep:	SDL can't find video/sound after update I just did an emerge --update --newuse world in gentoo, and now my SDL doesn't work. When I start programs including Qemu, I get various errors saying that sdl cannot find the sound device and that it can't find the video device. I have no idea what to do. Granted, kde can't find my sound card either (which it used to be able to do). Does this make sense to anyone? Thanks, -Peter
