	[Disclaimer:  These are only suggestions arrived at by a lot of trial-and-
error attempts at generating DirectX stuff using Gnu-Win32 (EGCS-1.0.2-
Mingw32) and may not work for your specific platform setup]

	Much depends on what the errors actually are.  Here are some (NT4 
WkS) hints:

		Verify that you have set the DX headers to reflect the actual MS DX 
API that you have installed on your system.

		Verify that you have all the necessary libraries (.a files).

		Verify that you have added the necessary modifications to the Gnu-
Win32 headers as suggested by the author of the DX header port.

		Verify that you are linking the proper MS .dlls for DirectSound 
during the link phase (-l<any related DirectSound .dll).

		No problem...
