My problem fixed :) I just downloaded the update AMD Athlon kernel from SuSE YOU and everything works fine. Marc try to do the same if you have the AMD Athlon kernel. A big thanks to the SuSE people for updating the kernel :)

VIA 82xx Sound chipset and SuSE 9.0

by Filippos Papadopoulos

Hi to all. I have a QDI motherboard with VIA chipset. I have a terrible problem with SuSE 9.0 Pro. Although it recognizes my sound chipset as VIA 82xx AC97 codec, it doesnt play any sound ! Not in KDE, not in the CLI, not even with mpg123... I also get some strange kernel messages about ALSA, in the logs. The funny stuff is that i had to change my kernel to the one shipped with SuSE 8.2 and it happily plays sound. Does anyone has the same problem ? Thanks.

Update on Helix Player

by Rob Lanphier

Hi everyone, A couple months ago, I sent out mail helping a couple folks out with getting RealPlayer 8 for Linux. Now, I want to tell people "don't use that, we have something new and shiny!" Here's an update on the Helix Player initiative from RealNetworks. We're working on an open source, multi-format player (w/a couple of proprietary components, notably for RealAudio and RealVideo playback). We posted our first milestone release last month, and we've started posting nightly builds. Details for downloading this are here: https://player.helixcommunity.org/ The good: * Video playback is vastly improved over RealPlayer 8 and the RealOne Player Alpha that's currently available on * Includes Ogg Vorbis support * Includes SMIL 2.0, along with JPEG, GIF, PNG, and RealPix. This allows for some really impressive presentation capabilities (transitions, alphablending, etc). To show off what can be done using only the open source components of this player (e.g. no RealAudio and RealVideo), I put together the following presentation, which can be played with the Helix Player: Playback: http://rtsp.org/2003/demos/oggsmil/oggdemo.smil Download: http://rtsp.org/2003/demos/oggsmil.tar.gz What this doesn't show off is the ability to do transitions between video presentations or alphablend a translucent logo on top of a video, but you can at least start to see why it's cool. The bad: * The installation of this player isn't perfectly streamlined, but not rocket science. * Not all formats are supported yet. RealText and RealFlash are notable omissions that are on the plan. Windows Media is not on the plan. * Some hangups with SMIL...for example, we've got some bugs with path handling that keep us from showing off the battery of content we've developed to really show off SMIL * It's still pre-release quality. There's lots of quirks, but those are fewer by the day. All said, we're pretty proud of how it's shaping up. However, development, testing, and documentation are all in short supply, so we can really use your help. We really want to work with the community to make Linux a great multimedia desktop system.

You must have the right alsa version, and with Gaim or Kaim (mixers), and with env24control. http://mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-users/2003-May/033454.html http://www.mail-archive.com/alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net/msg08775.html http://www.bandaancha.st/documentos.php?docid=42 Mensaje citado por: Sarel Theron <sarelt(a)discoverymail.co.za>: > Hi > > Can I setup 6ch(5.1) in SuSE and how? > > regards > Sarel > > -- > To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-multimedia-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com > For additional commands send e-mail to suse-multimedia-e-help(a)suse.com > > > > __________________________________ Registrate desde http://servicios.arnet.com.ar/registracion/registracion.asp?origenid=9 y participá de todos los beneficios del Portal Arnet.

ati 7500 all-in-wonder

by Dennis Davis

Hello, just installed suse 8.2 pro on this computer.Its an 700mhz athlon with irongate/viper chipset. I have the video card working but not the tuner or input stuff. Tried to configure it like i did in slackware,but that seems to screw up my xf86config. I'm just looking to watch tv and record some home video stuff through the composite video input. The suse hardware shows this video card is supported. Has anyone else got this to work?

different avi-types?

by Frank Schulz

Hello! I have rescued a couple of *.avi files from a friend's win-xp system crash ;-|. Most files are the original downstream files from his camera. These files (up to 4GB, but also smaller ones) can not be read by mainactor 3.5 or mainactor 5.0-demo from the suse distributions. Kaffeine shows a black screen but plays the sound - it may be a tribute to my weak system (PII/350). Avi files which were allready treated by Pinacle can be handled by mainactor. My question: Are there different types of avi and/or i need extra libs/ plugins/workarounds ? thx frank

SCSI/Scanner again

by christofschmitt＠web.de

Hello again, i changed the card to an Adaptec Card AHA-2920 (96001-00 A) (the screen at the boot process tells me: Adaptec PCI) and now i have got two problems: 1. Windows 98 freezes, if the scanner isn't switched on at the boot process. After Windows completely loaded, i can switch off the scanner (strange, but i can arrange with that problem) 2. Under SuSE Linux 8.0 Yast2 tells me: there is no SCSI-Scanner and cdrecord -- scanbus shows no scsi-Card (it only shows the scsi - emulation of my dvd and cd- burner). On the left side Yast2 tells me at last: You have to install the scsi-Scanner manually.... and that i have to choose the scanner from the list ..... but there is no list with scanners or scsi-Cards.... This is at last the same message that i got while using the AdvanSys ABP 925. What have i to do, to install a scsi-card manually? (sorry, if it is maybe a stupid question, but i didn't find a manual to this problem). regards, Chris Am 18 Jul 2003 um 7:19 hat Vakvarju geschrieben: > On Thu, 17 Jul 2003 18:27:00 +0200 > Christof Schmitt <christofschmitt(a)web.de> wrote: > > > Hello list, > > > > just a time ago I had trouble with installing the SCSI-scanner HP > > ScanJet 4c and at last i thought, the SCSI Card is the troublemaker. > > So i got another SCSI Card (AdvanSys ABP 925) and a cable with SCSI 2 > > (i think) at one end and a end with a thick fifty pins adapter from a > > friend as a solution.
