Sorry peoples i have a very bad english?but i'll try...
I am a novice in gentoo & linux.

I install gentoo & gnome as gui frontend, after that install ALSA (Mplayer & VLC works perfect) but i have ho sounds inside the gnome.
Clicking on volume control:
"The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer"
emerge media-libs/gstreamer don't help me :(

Wine has no sound too.

nano & eog does not show .jpg files, i'll emerge jpeg and add jpeg to the USE variable, reinstall eol & gtk-engines but still has the problem.

Thanks for help.

Maybe ALSA isn't working like it should, and mplayer falls back on OSS. Does mplayer still work if you run it with mplayer -ao alsa <filename>? Do you have anything in /dev/snd/?

I install alsa end edit USE variable after installing gnome, may be that is the problem?
May be some other environment variables must be set?

That may be it. Re-emerge all packages with outdated use flags with:
Code:
emerge --newuse -Dav world

try eclean-dist --destructive to delete all downloaded and outdated distfiles. Will save a lot of space.
