Hi, I was experiencing sound-problems with KDE4, so I installed Gnome. There I have less problems. I installed opensuse again with KDE4 because I liked KDE(3) more. I have a multi-boot setup now : my old 10.2, and 11.2 KDE and 11.2 Gnome, so I can try both KDE and Gnome. OS 11.2 is 64-bit. In Gnome I can setup sound so my 4 speakers are used. How can I do this in KDE4 ? Alsa's speaker-test -c4 works fine in Gnome. If I try this with KDE, I only have 2 speakers. Where is Gnome storing that info ? In Gnome I can play audio-CD's, in KDE4 I'm having problems. I have 2 DVD-drives. With one I can play an audio-CD with Kaffeine, the other gives an error : cannot find plugin for MRL [cdda:/]. I don't like kaffeine to play audio-CD's. I prefer amarok, but there it's impossible to play a CD, just like it's impossible to play a CD with KsCD. I can play mp3 with amarok though. One advantage I have with KDE4 : I can play DVD's with Kaffeine. In Gnome I can't with the "standard" video-player (don't remember the name now). Is there some opensuse website where I can read how to fix my problems ? Or is KDE4 so broken for audio ? Do I need to install something to play audio-CD's ? I know in the past I had to install those codecs, I read somewhere that this wasn't needed anymore. Is this right ? Anyone can point me in the right direction ? TIA.
