[Bug 309057] New: ALSA clients broken in default installation
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=309057 Summary: ALSA clients broken in default installation Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: pbaudis@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- In default installation, ALSA clients using libasound fail because of insufficient permission - shmget() returns EACCES, trying to allocate a memory region owned by root with mode 0660, gid = 17 (audio). However, the logged in user is not member of audio group. Manually adding myself in the audio group and relogging fixes the issue and ALSA clients (aplay, unofficial mplayer, ...) work fine. I guess that most applications automagically fall back to using OSS (which works, because of ACLs) so this is not immediately noticeable, but unless your soundcard supports hw mixing, you can have only one application using sound running at once then. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
