I "solved" it by changing the permissions on the audio device: cj42289-a(.../python/linux); ls -lF /dev/dsp crw-rw---- 1 root audio 14, 3 Sep 27 2000 /dev/dsp cj42289-a(.../python/linux); ./python ../Lib/test/regrtest.py test_linuxaudiodevtest_linuxaudiodev test test_linuxaudiodev skipped -- (13, 'Permission denied', '/dev/dsp') 1 test skipped: test_linuxaudiodev As a side effect, the machine no longer makes that horrid screeching sound. ;-) -Fred -- Fred L.
