Hello SuSE people. Running 8.2, KDE 3.2.3, Realplayer 8.0.3, Mozilla 1.6 Having trouble with using Realplayer to listen to stuff from the web. When Realplayer opens I receive the message, "Cannot open audio device Another application may be using it" I run top, and/or ps and I find no other audio application running except artsd. (artsd has in the past and still seems to runaway taking up as much as 80% of the cpu. Have to kill it to make my system stable again) Anyway after killing artsd the situation remains the same with Realplayer - (Cannot open audio device) For some more backgound/info I can run Xmms and listen to the tracks from a CD. If I list some mp3 files in the playlist immediately after the CD tracks, I get the same message. If I just open xmms to try to play just the mp3's I get the same message. Can anyone tell me why I am getting this message about the audio device being busy?? Bob S.
