When I login the desktop icon for the volume control has a red X.
I click on it I get the following error message: "This volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed or that you don't have a sound card configured."
The YaST sound configuration window shows that the ESS1988 Allegro-1 was configured as sound card number 0. It also lists the driver as snd_maestro3. So that seems like the card is being found.
Most bizarre to me is that in the login window when my cursor is in

I'm looking for any suggestions and I'm willing to provide any information that would be helpful. Please remember that I am something of a beginner, so please try to keep that in mind when advising me. Thank you.
Gene Anderson in Taiwan Hi Gene,
I'm betting all works fine if you log in as root? Have you checked your system.log (/var/log/messages) for any resmgr errors?

Dear Tambun:
I appreciate your response. I installed the Gnome desktop because the download of 10.3 had me choose either that or KDE, and I'm more familiar with Gnome (I use it in Fedora). Using KDE instead might solve my problem, but I am trying to use this experience to learn more about Linux, so I'm going to try to go ahead with this Gnome desktop unless I can't get the problem solved.
I couldn't seem to get alsaconf to run, even when logged in as root. The command couldn't seem to be found. I'll look into that more tomorrow.
By the way, what does CMIMW mean?
Sincerely yours,
Gene
