I'm actually on holidays in Austria at present (I live in Australia), but one thing I may have neglected to mention previously is that to get sound working you need to do the following:
    * load the "snd-pcm-oss" module; AND
    * give gsportx read-write access to /dev/pcm. You can do this by either running gsportx with elevated privileges (e.g. "sudo gsportx"), or (preferrably) doing a "chmod 666 /dev/pcm".

Once I had done this I had a fully functioning emulator with sound running on my Pi.

Auf wiedersehen,
