[Bug 209619] New: Yast having serious problems with sound setup
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=209619 Summary: Yast having serious problems with sound setup Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: 32bit OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: inglor@seznam.cz QAContact: jsrain@novell.com I have a built-in sound card CMI. Yast and Yast2 with the original module yast2-sound-2.13.9 was unable to set the card properly and permanently. Bought a Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy, added to the system. Problems worsened, Yast and Yast2 froze during startup of the cards. Upgraded yast2-sound to version 2.13.15-3 from a RPM foung on http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/i5... Now, each attempt to start Sound configuration in Hardware section will end up by SIGSEGV. The error message: yast: /sbin/yast: line 233: 10464 Neoprávněný přístup do paměti (SIGSEGV) $ybindir/y2base menu ncurses $NCTHREADS yast2: Segmentation fault at sound/routines.ycp:3 /sbin/yast2: line 233: 10512 Neoprávněný přístup do paměti (SIGSEGV) $ybindir/y2base $module "$@" qt "$Y2_GEOMETRY" $Y2QT_ARGS -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Using Factory packages on 10.1 is a very bad idea. Please re-install the original 10.1 package(s).

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=209619 ------- Comment #2 from inglor@seznam.cz 2006-10-04 02:05 MST ------- Reverted yast2-sound back to the original version. See the description of the bugs below. BTW Cannot find it now, but I believe that installation of a newer yast sound module was suggested in some online forum by a Czech user whose name reminded me of some Czech branch Suse employee (I happen to personally know a lot of them). To tell the truth, he never indicated to take the package from the Factory - in fact, he did not indicate any source for them at all. As for the bugs: I have two soundcards, CMI-8738 on the motherboard and Audigy 4 in a PCI slot. When I start Yast sound setup, I can setup the Audigy correctly as snd-card-0, and I can delete the other card (which I do not want to use). I can even play the loudness setting sound during the setting. But when I try to save these settings and click Finish, the saving freezes in 60% (startup of the sound card). I have to kill the frozen app then. When I restart Yast sound setup after killing the frozen app, the Audigy card seems to be setup correctly and the CMI seems to be inactive - correctly, too. But no sound can be played by the user, programs like mplayer and realplayer end up in message "cannot open audio device" etc. Root can play sounds and use mplayer and realplayer without problems. On recommendation of a friend, I tried to add the user to group audio, to no avail. I haven't changed any access rights manually. What should I do to be able to play music as a normal user?

I cannot reproduce it in openSUSE10.2, it works for me (=> decreasing the severity).
I need more information about your configuration:
- is the resource manager running? (use 'ps -A | grep resmgr' command) - permissions for /dev/audio ('ls -l /dev/audio') - ACL permissions for /dev/audio ('getfacl /dev/audio')
The resource manager daemon should set permissions for the local user (see the getfacl output).

I believe it is KDM, since I use KDE and all default settings from a normal SUSE installation. ps aux | grep "kdm" gives root 3633 0.0 0.0 3376 692 ?
