    Yes. I read several messages on this list that said applications are 
not working if they are sending data to /dev/dsp. I have this problem 
too. If you look at the permission with ls -l it has my login then root 
and then that stupid sticky bit thing. When I call /dev/dsp with a GUI 
device the permissions are changed it seems.

    So I want the thing changed to what is in FC6 which is root uucp and 
I know how to use that :-)
