Man, I'm soooo close I can taste it!
I usually run gnome, but I fired up KDE and tried a few things (even
disabling the sound server entirely). I even tried running twm as it's a
REAL basic windows manager. Still no luck.
I'm not even sure if it's a sound problem (but Isaac seems to think it is,
and he knows a hell of a lot more about it than me!).
I have noticed that ringbuf.nuv keeps growing and growing, but I don't
have any video.
I'm so sad :(
