1. Gnome Terminal: When running YAST1 within Gnome Terminal, the function keys (F3, F4, etc.) don't work properly. I looked at the preferences but I didn't see any setting that can be changed to fix this.
Yep, I had that problem too - the display doesn't update properly either. I'm not too sure what the fix is as far as sorting out the terminal goes, but you can start Yast in its own window with 'susewmif yast'. I have this behind a button on my panel, and it works just like KDE.
2. Sound: I am using the commercial OSS driver. Under KDE everything works just fine. Under Gnome, only some of the applications produce sound. For example, Real Player plays just fine, but XMMS is silent.
I had this too - or at least I had a problem with sound playing through ESD. Assuming you have XMMS set up right (as others have suggested), your problem may be due to a bug in ESD. Either wait for the fixed version to come out, or, if you know what you're doing, apply this patch and recompile ESD: ---<cut here>--- --- audio_oss.c-ORG Wed Mar 15 19:00:49 2000 +++ audio_oss.c Sat Jun 3 21:18:49 2000 @@ -47,7 +47,7 @@ mode = fcntl(afd, F_GETFL); mode &= ~O_NONBLOCK; - fcntl(afd, F_SETFL); + fcntl(afd, F_SETFL, mode); /* TODO: check that this is allowable */ /* set for full duplex operation, if recording */ ---<stop cutting here>--- This ensures ESD blocks when the kernel can't take all the sound stream. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
