I also added java to the PATH in .profile. At first this didn't work when using the gnome terminal until I realised I had to change it to use a login shell. For a short time everything was fine but now .profile is completely ignored and when I start cvsup under gnome the text version and not the gui is used. I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I'm using gdm. The second problem I'm having is probably not related to the first. I have a Sound Blaster AudioPCI 128 and compiled a custom kernel where I added device pcm and removed some stuff I dont need. The first few times the sound worked fine but now sometimes there are no mixer vol or pcm devices and when I reboot they are sometimes there again and sometimes I have to reboot several times before sound works again. Also could anyone help me compile and use the acx100 driver at http://acx100.sourceforge.net ? I didn't find a binary driver for FreeBSD and was unable to compile it myself. I should probably mention that I'm using FreeBSD 5.1 on an athlon-xp. Thanks in advance, Simon Adameit
