Thanks Bert.

1)
Bert, I re-compiled after installing all the header- and devel- packages as
told by you (after incorporating a blocker-fix as per
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.smalltalk.squeak.general/146266).

However, I still am not able to hear any sound.


2)
I also tried copying all the so.* files from my Dell laptop (where the
sound was being heard) to the XO-1 (where sound is not being heard).
However, still no sound is heard.


So, I guess that now, there is some etoys software-hardware
intervention-issue that might be blocking the final destination (it must be
noted that sound is heard fine, outside the context of etoys).


Any ideas will be gratefully appreciated; me too is looking into this.


Thanks and Regards,
Ajay
