I'm running jaunty. Thought I would give ubuntuzilla a try. However, it doesn't work for me. Here is what I get:

Anyone ever see this? Or anyone know how to fix it?

Hi what is this /usr/lib/oss thing?

as to how to fix it - change in line 648 to use 'sudo' for the find command.

That fixed it. Thank you very much.

The oss in there is probably open sound system; the only major change I have made to jaunty is to remove alsa and pulseaudio, and install oss 4.2 in their place. I had a sound issue because of my hardware, and it is resolved by using oss instead of alsa.
