Filed Bug 1228133 - KDE3 kmix cannot find mixer, alsamixer and kamix okay
All, Just passing along a bug report regarding kmix losing it mind (mixer) in Tumbleweed. KDE3 kmix cannot find mixer, alsamixer and kamix okay https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1228133 I'm no sound expert, so if you have additional information about why kmix is broken in Tumbleweed, please add your information to the bug report (and hopefully it can get fixed) The odd part is sound in KDE3 on Tumbleweed is fine. Alsamixer works fine in konsole. kamix works fine in systray (it's ugly, basically being a KDE2 app, but it works) So why kmix can't at least do at minimum what alsamixer and kamix can is a mystery to me. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
Ok, fixed :-) "-std=gnu11" is needed to be set because alsa was updated. (alsa support was removed during "configure" due to compilation error) On Fri, 19 Jul 2024 01:56:56 -0500 "David C. Rankin" <drankinatty@gmail.com> wrote:

Is this about 15.6, TW, SR or all? I've been seeing those little red Xes in all. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1228133 only says TW. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

Hopefully the standard was updated in all release CFLAGS, but the bug only listed for tumbleweed (I didn't know it affected any others) Yasuhiko, can you make sure all Leap releases also get the C11 standard fix? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
This fix is only for Tumbleweed. It is because only newer ALSA requires C11. (Alsa build test during "configure" failed and it removed alsa support) On Fri, 19 Jul 2024 18:31:57 -0500 "David C. Rankin" <drankinatty@gmail.com> wrote:

Got it! Thank you. Hopefully the problem Felix is having in Leap can be identified. My last Leap was 15.4 and everything was working fine (and still is on the other drive). So if Leap 15.6 is using the earlier ALSA - why would he be seeing the red 'X' on kmix? Felix, what version of ALSA does 15.6 have? 15.4 has: alsa-1.2.6.1-150400.1.4.x86_64 and I didn't have any issue with how it was built. (I also haven't updated in 9 months either - so if the bug was introduced in October - Feb (end of life), I missed it. If you want, I can test the latest 15.4 packages to see if kmix is broken there (though it sure is tempting to not update and leave 15.4 KDE3 in it's near pristine shape :) -- David C.
