Thanks for the suggestion. Tried and here's what I got:

esd: Failed to fix mode of /tmp/.esd to 1777.
Try -trust to force esd to start.
esd: Esound sound daemon unable to create unix domain socket:
The socket is not accessible by esd.
Exiting...

Practically the same message as before. By the way, the system doesn't
appear to be broken at all. Users do log in and do anything they want
and don't complain about anything. Grip is the only apparent problem.


Focus on the dream, not the competition.
