That's an issue with the squeak-vm package. Upstream bug report and temporary workaround at  http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=7328

Bulk change distribution=SoaS -> component=SoaS

  • distribution changed from Unspecified to Fedora
  • component changed from SoaS to Etoys

Looks like this got accidentally assigned to SoaS - back to Etoys here.

This has been fixed in the mean time (ever since etoys 4.0.2247, August 2009).

I have download the Etoys version 113 for Sugar but I still have the "soundStart: snd_add_pcm_handler: Function not implemented" problem.
The lsmod command shoe me:

You would have to update the etoys rpm package. The Etoys activity is only a wrapper that uses that package.

Now the log file says: "sound: /dev/dsp: No such file or directory"

Which version of etoys did you install now?

And can you check that the "pulseaudio-utils" package is installed? It includes the "padsp" program that emulates /dev/dsp.
