Ah. Complicated by the fact that I started talking about two things 
and have kept it up.

This first part is about trying to get the squeak command (using the default 
squeak image) to have sound. This doesn't work because the -vm-sound-OSS driver
is not present in the installed squeak package. That is what is driving the previous
posts. The fix is to get the squeak.org offering to include the correct packages.
This is the previous subject. For which we have your offer of help but still no
takers for the task itself.

The other part and what I was focusing on here was the possibility of getting the
etoys command to load with an image of my choosing. I have not gotten knowledgable enough to find something that works. And from what you've written below the problem is the etoys.sh script. So next step is experimenting with shell scripting. Which I was trying to avoid. Another vast area of ignorance for me presently.

Ah well, learning is fun. And I wouldn't be a bug tracker if I didn't enjoy the feeling of frustration. 

Thanks for your continuing help. Expect more questions soon.

Yours in curiosity and service, --Jerome Peace
