https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=474595 Summary: kde4-kmix installed vice kdemultimedia3-mixer on kde3 systems Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Sound AssignedTo: tiwai@novell.com ReportedBy: jrobiso2@ford.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-1.4 Firefox/3.0.6 KDE3 installed, not KDE4. "zypper in kdemultimedia3-mixer" results in kde4-kmix being installed instead. KDE4-KMIX is NOT compatible with kde3. It brings serious difficulty to dealing with sound issues. The instant I FORCED zypper to install kdemultimedia3-mixer and deleted kde4-kmix, my sound system problems went away. Heck, kde4-kmix wouldn't even show the "Master Channel", and insisted on showing either "Front" or "PCM", and insisted on muting the digital PCM. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. KDE3. remove kde4 2.zypper in kdemultimedia3-mixer 3.watch as zypper installs kde4-kmix instead Actual Results: kde4-kmix installs. On my Dell Latitude D620 with ICH7 sound, kde4-kmix does NOT work well, and in fact is frustrating and nearly impossible to make any progress with. Expected Results: I expected kdemultimedia3-mixer to install and work as it has for years. Now that I have FORCED zypper to install it, it works like it should. Please make the system STOP substituting kde4-kmix in place of kdemultimedia3-mixer. This so totally screwed my sound up that it became unusable. Therefore I am making the Severity Major (a major feature is broken) -- 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.
