    Hey group.

    I get an error when starting up kde that says that sound cannot be
    initialized because it cannot open /dev/dsp. I tried looking for a man
    page on dsp but there wasn't any. I assume that it has something to do
    with the file permissions on /dev/dsp and that all I have to do is to use
    chmod on the file, but I don't want to mess anything up. I have included
    an ls -l of /dev/dsp*.

    crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 3 Mar 14 2002 dsp
    crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 19 Mar 14 2002 dsp1
    crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 35 Mar 14 2002 dsp2
    crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 51 Mar 14 2002 dsp3
