No sound with xfsound - ??

[Ewan Andreasen]

Hi. I am running Mandrake 8.1, with ships with XFCE, and I enjoy working
with since it is fast.

My problem is that I do not have sound for events in XFCE. Furthermore,
any changes that I make manually in my xfwmrc file is totally
disregarded, since I have tried to work with that file to maybe
uncomment the lines with "I" Module xfsound...
Another annoyance is that I seem to have no desktop icons, and I cannot
drag&drop files or folders down on the desktop. Any help?
