Hi all,
Yesterday I did a clean install of Suse 9.1. My tv-card (Pinnacle PCTV)
did get recognized properly and I could watch television on my pc. The
problem I had was that I didn't have any sound. I tried different sound
settings from the configuration panel in kdetv, but it wouldn't work.
This morning when I turned on my computer I couldn't watch tv anymore.
The appropriate device (bt878) was no longer in the list under "Devices"
in kdetv. I removed the card from the configuration center and added it
again. When I tried to scan for channels I got an error message saying
that /dev/video0 doesn't exist.
How can I fix it and how do I get sound?
Kind regards,
Bert Meersma
I am running SuSE 9.1 Professional on an Alienware Area-51M notebook
computer...
Whenever I reboot the sound does not work.. I can get it back by running
the Alsa Volume Control and unchecking the boxes for ICE958, ICE958
Capture Monitor ICE958 Capture Valid and ICE958 Plaback Source.
Is there a way to make this change permanent? It is becoming a mild
annoyance to have to remember to do this everytime I reboot.
Thank you,
Scott
Hi everybody,
I can't figure out how to get sound from my SB Live! 5.1 (SuSE 9.1).
Till now I checked these points:
- It's not a DELL one; lspci outputs
0000:00:0e.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1
(rev 0a)
- I updated to alsa-1.0.6 packages from packman: now these are installed (rpm
-qa | grep alsa)
alsa-1.0.6-0.pm.0
alsa-tools-1.0.6-0.pm.0
alsa-tools-gui-1.0.6-0.pm.0
alsamodular-1.7.6-27
alsaplayer-0.99.76-63
pwlib-plugins-alsa-1.6.5-8
alsamixergui-0.9.0rc1-517
alsa-devel-1.0.6-0.pm.0
alsa-docs-1.0.6-0.pm.0
- I tried to install it with YaST2; I can't hear the test sound, whatever
the levels are.
- I also played with the levels in alsamixergui, kmix and kamix
- The audio cable is on the green jack; and other jacks don't seem to
deliver anything, however.
- I tried tu change permissions for /dev/dsp, /dev/mixer, /dev/sequencer
(chmod a+rw ...). No effect; moreover permissions are reset
automatically to rw------- after reboot.
- BIOS onboard sound is disabled.
Can someone help me? Thanks a lot...

I have some holiday avi files which were recorded on a friend's camcorder. He
used an MS app to transfer them to the PC. I find that on my linux system
I'm not able to view them. Running the file command on one of them I get:
"uvs040331-002-33.AVI: RIFF (little-endian) data, AVI, 720 x 576, 25.00 fps"
Does anyone know of a program that I can use to view (convert) them? I
normally use xine but it complains about not having the codec. I don't
remember now but I think that I get the same result from mplayer.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi, my dvd and cdrom devices give me an error when I try to mount them,
"fs type subfs not supported by kernel."
I built my own kernel with the downloaded suse kernel sources 2.6.5-7.108.
I used the /proc/config.gz from the original installation to template my
.config for the new kernel so I shouldn't have changed any functionality.
However, I can't seem to find an option in the .config file that
corresponds to this function anyway.
Can anyone help me out? Please.
Thanks,
Michael
Hi,
I have a Creative MuVo 64MB player. It worked fine with SuSE 9.0 but
when I upgraded to 9.1 Pro, no luck. :-(
Any ideas on how to get this to work with SuSE 9.1??
I really don't want to downgrade to 9.0 just to use the MuVo player.
The MuVo now shows up when I click on the hardware icon by the clock. It
says it is available but not configured. I clicked on the configure
button and the partioning utility shows up, but sda1 is not in the list
of partitions.
Now what do I do?
Hey everyone
I'm running SuSE 9.1 and am trying to get Ardour and Jack to work
properly. I used Yast to install Ardour, while Jack just came installed
already. I started Jack using the following commmand:
$ sudo jackd -d alsa -d hw:1
and Adrour with this command:
$ sudo ardour
I tried jackstart, but it apparently could not find that command.
In Ardour I can record, but the sound is distorted. Also, when
monitoring the output of my M Audio Delta 44 sound card, the output is
delayed compared to the input.
How should I go about getting better sound? Do I have to recompile the
kernel? Do I need to add a patch?
Thanks for any help with this. Sorry, when it comes to Linux audio I'm
a bit of a noob...

OK, j said that his k3b worked fine after install and
update.
So I moved my computer to a fast connection,
reinstalled 9.1 Professional from CD (with HD format -
to make sure it was clean) and did the online update.
No luck.
Tried the packman k3b V 0.11.14-0 that j suggested.
No luck. k3b just sits there looking and looking, the
HD (it's a SCSI) shines its light brightly.
Both th CD and the CDRW are available to KDE as
drives.
Any suggestions?

SuSE's posted info in the db apply to 8.1, I am
assuming they have no relevance to this problem that I
am having with 9.1
