   Hi All,   
      
   Got a shiny new Ubuntu box.  I went in and installed the KDE desktop so I   
   guess I'm now running Kubuntu.  A few questions please.   
      
      
   1) How do I get the sound effects back that originally came with Ubuntu?   
      
   2) If I change the screen size to a useable value - 1024x768 - the machine   
   won't boot into X.  It complains "no screens found".  Any idea what's wrong   
   here?
