Audio works in linux Youtube, mplayer, mpg123, etc. It's just dosbox that fails. Google searching did not help. I saw a few references to checking for missing /dev/dsp and /dev/audio. They are present on my system. Any ideas? -- Walter Dnes <waltdnes@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
