http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=514098 Summary: configuring pulse audio ( in yast ) introduces strange env vars Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i386 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: nopower@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- apologies if the component is wrong ;-) ( tossed a coin between yast and sound ) configuring sound ( and selecting pulseaudio support [*] ) from yast [*] from yast's sound configuration screen select and enable pulseaudio configuration from the 'Other' dropdown-button. Logout and login at the console type

env | grep alias

and below is what you get ( the strange alias, and no they are not really alias's this is the output of env ) alias timidity=timidity -Oe alias sox=padsp sox alias aumix=padsp aumix this also happens in SLED11 btw. It had at least an interesting side effect for me as after enabling pulse audio I couldn't build openoffice any more ;-) Apparently I am not the only one ;-) I later found this bug http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=101786 where some community hacker got burnt with the same. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
