Hi all, Anyone else ventured into installing the new SuSE KDE 3.4 files yet?
Yup. Installed them yesterday (16th) morning. No problems at all so far.
Remember the problem with the system sounds concerning the new arts files last time?
Please refresh my memory. :)
Well, it seems they are back with the new 3.4 files too.
Really? I have arts-{,devel-}1.4.0-8.i586.rpm installed (arts-gmcop is not installed). Seems to work well.
It seems as simple a solution to fix though. I just recompiled the SuSE src.rpm to my system and sounds work nicely again. Don't know what's happening with those arts files or what Adrian is compiling them on, but they certainly don't seem to work.
Well, this working/non-working state of arts must depend on something that is different from my and your system.
Speed doesn't seem bad, but of course, I know this will improve substantiately with KDE 4.
Hmm, interesting! :)
Thanks SuSE for the updates and maybe Adrian might let one of us compile the arts files for him next time! ;o)
Just mark yours with arts-bandipat. ;) Adrians arts packages do work over here.
Cheers,
Leen

Hi Leen, I just built mine with a different build number to separate them actually. Maybe the gcomp file is the breaking point then, because I have all three files installed. I hadn't even considered that one file might be causing the problems with it all. If you are running a basic 9.2 system, only updating from the SuSE mirrors and Packman, then our systems are alike! I've been pretty prudent with 9.2 and everything has worked well because of that.
Might be a nice experiment then, to have you install the third file to see if it breaks things? :o)
What is arts-gmcop for? Let's make a deal: - You try uninstalling arts-gmcop (perhaps just temporary) and see if that gets your sound back (I suppose you need to uninstall your arts, arts-devel, and arts-gmcop, and install adrian's instead, without gmcop) - I install arts-gmcop and report back if the system-sounds work. I'll logout of KDE during installing the package. BTW, *** please name 1 system sound in particular that I should test and is a good indicator if system sounds work ***. BRB, Cheers, Leen
