Thanks for your input on the sound problem. I managed to get the sound
working by having to try and install a new kernel. The kernel didn't
install but somehow my /boot/grub/menu.lst got updated in the process so
now I have sound. I still need to edit the menu.lst file to delete the
kernel that didn't install. In the ealier version (9.04) I had a grub
editor installed but since that's not available in 9.10 how do I edit
the menu.lst file?
