I am running slackware boxed set 7.1 with kernel 2.2.16 I have a couple questions. 1) yesterday I started getting ioctl/(TIOCSETD(PPP)): errors I tried everything out of the kernel and ppp how-tos and faq's. I even reformatted and reinstalled linux because this was a fresh install but that didn't work. What finally worked was deleting the partitions and repartioning the drive. That finally worked. I am not sure what happened here or why I needed such a drastic fix, seems to me the problem could have been resolved some other way but I couldn't find it online. Any info on this would be appreciated. 2) I have the emu10k1 drivers installed as modules and they are loading. I can get sound with root but not as a normal user. Any suggestions? thanks craig
