syslog-ng & Amarok on SUSE 10
Hello everyone, I got my SUSE 10 box last Friday and I just installed it on my "test partition" before switching completely (I'm on SUSE 9). So far, so good. I really like what I have seen so far. I just have two quick questions regarding amarok and syslog-ng: Amarok: This is my first time trying Amarok. I'm a xmms guy :) However, the xmms version on the box doesn't come with mp3 support so I'm trying Amarok. I noticed that when I change the volume, there's a slight delay. I lower/rise the volume using the mouse wheel button and for example: I lower it 20% and one second later the change takes effect. How can I change this? I tried searching the options, output plugins etc but couldn't find it. Syslog-ng I don't know if this is the first time syslog-ng is the default logging daemon. I'm used to syslog and I have a syslog.conf with dozens of custom lines that I wanted to migrate to the new system. Now I noticed that syslog-ng is the default one. I just checked the syslog-ng configuration file and I don't think it will understand the syslog.conf syntax. My question is: Can I just remove syslog-ng and install syslog? Are there any applications customized to take advantage of syslog-ng logging cappabilities? Thanks in advance for your comments. Jorge

Correct.

I think yes.

Not that I know of. But why not just convert your dozens of line of syslog.conf to syslog-ng format? It should be straight forward. I moved to syslog-ng a while ago - it's clearly more capable than syslog. /Per Jessen, Zürich

That's because in the last versions hardware mixing is disabled. Software mixing is a little bit more slow (a couple of seconds). IIRC, there was a script to do hw mixing in kde-apps.org -- Flextron - Linux user: 306877 -- GPG keyID: 0xE0EA0B24 --

Thanks for the tip Flextron. I'll investigate this. Thanks, Jorge
