It seems like something avoidable. The error is: open dsp: No such file or directory Gdk-ERROR **: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) serial 24 error_code 10 request_code 129 minor_code 1 This occurs whenever I go to certain sites (quite a few actually). My assumption is that mozilla is trying to access the nonexistant sound device on my machine. I tried to fool it by just creating an empty file there, or a link to /dev/null for /dev/dsp, but then I get: ioctl SNDCTL_DSP_RESET: Inappropriate ioctl for device ioctl SNDCTL_DSP_SETFMT: Inappropriate ioctl for device ioctl SNDCTL_DSP_SETFMT: Inappropriate ioctl for device ioctl SNDCTL_DSP_SPEED: Inappropriate ioctl for device ioctl SNDCTL_DSP_GETBLKSIZE: Inappropriate ioctl for device Gdk-ERROR **: BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied) serial 24 error_code 10 request_code 129 minor_code 1 So it seems that it can't be fooled. What can I do? It seems that there is now way in userland to tell mozilla not to use sound, and there isn't at the level of ports options either.
