I was never able to hear sound in my linux client, but I was able to browse world without problems. Any advice?

The SL alpha Linux client does not yet have sound support.

--Val

All right.

I think I can live without that now.. but when I try nosound or noaudio parameter with local, that it's freeze after detecting hardware.

If I try to -local -noprobe -noaudio parameters, it's starts, but after while if crash again and I see only

SIGSEGV

It appears there is code for an audio interface that is not fully disabled. This causes a problem when secondlife is run as:

./secondlife -local

I suggest not running it with that argument.
