[Fwd: Re: [SLE] Yet another Sound Trial (YaST) 2]
Anders, Did you ever figure this out? The thread seemed to die out without anyone coming up with a concrete answer. I'm at a loss as to what to do next unless it's to file a report with Novell. dave

Oops, yes, you're right, my mind thought one thing but my fingers typed another :). Sorry
Still doesn't work. Checkbox still doesn't appear after this edit. "Select audio backend" is blank, but not greyed out. Set "Select audio device" to /dev/dsp. Further edited kscdrc to set audio system to arts, no joy.
OK, I'll have to look deeper then.
I remember this issue being up once before, it's not 9.3 specific I don't think. And I vividly remember digging through the source to find the solution (which I did, IIRC), but I can't for the life of me remember what it was

Do you have an audio cable connected to your CD drive? So far for me, kscd in 9.3 is broken in regards to digital extraction.

No I didn't, but look at the recent mail from Joe Morris. His investigation seems to point to a bug that meant CDDA simply isn't compiled in to kscd Note that CDDA is listed in the TODO file for kscd, indicating that it's something they're still working on

Following Joe's link all the way to the end, which appears to be the message you wrote about further investigation, is how I go to where I am. Interestingly, KsCD works on my Mepis install at work and I think it also runs on 9.3 on the work box although 9.3 is behaving a bit unruly right now and I have to do a little housekeeping to get kdm to stay put. Hopefully I'll be able to accomplish that tomorrow and then see if memory serves me correctly. More tomorrow. -- David C.

Well, kscd should work on any machine that has a cable connecting the CD/DVD reader to the sound card. CDDA (the problem Joe was investigating) is only needed when you don't have that

Well, no, KsCD doesn't run on the 9.3 partition on the work box after all, but as I said earlier, it works just fine with the 3.3 Mepis distro. All the hardware is the same obviously, so I'm curious as to what's different besides KDE on the two distros. 9.3 is running KDE 3.4 while the 3.3 is running KDE 3.3 The 9.2 version also played sound via KsCD so there has to be something specific with this release. Since I'm relatively unfamiliar with the "guts" of all this, what libraries might be involved. Could this be related to the two different versions of glibc; 2.3.3 for 9.2 and 2.3.4 for 9.3? I believe that the Mepis distro is also running glibc 2.3.3. For what its worth, none of the other shipping audio products such as xmms, amarok, or kaffeine (audio part) play in 9.3 either. -- David C.
