Hey openSuSE factory; I have version 11.2 and KDE. The problem is why does SuSE make all sound devices fail to work for users? I have tried kradio with root and it works as a user it fails. Skype, amarok and kdetv all fail as a user. I did get amarok using Yast2 rpms to work with amarok-xine and yauap (which fails to hold the volume correctly on startup). I have even set permissions to 666 on /dev/dsp and for Skype a entry in /etc/services. Kradio complains about no dev/radio as a user. Kdetv fails for root and a user. And Yast2 did setup the TV Card and radio. Not to mention xine blows up on a mounted known good non encrypted movie DVD " mount /dev/sr0 /media/sr0 " -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email:" n5xwb@windstream.net " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
