I don't know if this is related but I'm getting the following error on KDE startup:

Error while initialized the sound driver:

device /dev/dsp can't be opened (Permission denied)

The sound server will continue...

I have insmod'ed my sound module (i810_audio) so I dunno what the problem could be. Thanks in advance!
