Either of those should do the trick. Odd. artsd isn't running, but SDL is still trying to use it. One thing to try would be to set the SDL_AUDIODRIVER env variable before running E-UAE to pick the audio output system to use. For example: export SDL_AUDIODRIVER=alsa to use ALSA. See http://sdldoc.csn.ul.ie/sdlenvvars.php for more details on this. Another solution would be to re-compile E-UAE without using the SDL audio driver. For instance, on Linux if you omit the --with-sdl-sound option when configuring, it'll use OSS for audio output. Cheers, Rich
