Well, it's solved on my system anyway. Like several others on this list, after updating to KDE 3.4, I could play sounds, but the System notifications didn't work.
I found the answer on linuxquestions.org
Thanks for the searching. ;-)
Open /opt/kde3/bin/startkde and find the line that reads:
"LD_BIND_NOW=true kdeinit +kcminit"
That should be on two lines like this:
"LD_BIND_NOW=true kdeinit+kcminit"
I did that, it was as you said.
Now, add the line:
"KNotify Init=true"
This was already in mine correctly.
to the [StartProgress] section of ~/.kde/share/config/knotifyrc.
That worked for me!
It still didn't fix mine (and I was so hopeful. I then went into System Notifications in Control Center, Sound & Multimedia (KDE System Notifications section). Even though sounds were on, it still didn't work. I then went to the Player Settings, and tried to adjust the volume (it was at 100%). The slider moved but the percentage didn't, so I changed it back to 100%, hit Apply, then OK, and tried the sounds again. They worked. Logged out and back in, and it worked (but later than it used to be. Anyway, hopefully it is fixed now. -- Joe Morris New Tribes Mission Email Address: Joe_Morris@ntm.org Registered Linux user 231871
