one error down maybe two to go.

For the record these are the two remaining errors once exitemu is run.
ERROR: libao: unable to get driver id
ERROR: alsa_midi (ALSA lib): rawmidi_hw.c:235:(snd_rawmidi_hw_open) : No
such file or directory open /dev/snd/midiC0D0 failed
I fixed the code page error by editing /etc/profile and ~/.bash_profile
files, sometimes it doesn't pay to trust systemd.
The alsa-midi error above if it is an error can't find a device or file
it's supposed to open.  Probably since I haven't got the right package or
packages installed on this system to make that happen.
libao is definitely on the system so why its ID can't be found is
puzzling.
