i think i've figured out what was causing 7.2 to lock up. my sound card wasn't being correctly set up by my bios (ddma channels or some such,) and i believe that when suse was trying to send anything to the soundcard, it freaked and locked up. i swapped out the soundcard, and haven't run into trouble yet after an evening of looking for trouble. ;) oh, happy day. -- -derek Never shave with Occam's Razor in a funhouse.

Does ANYone know how to get Real Player 8 to work with SuSe 7.2? It seemed to work fine under 7.0, but under 7.2, RP just appears on the screen and locks up and or ends up repeating endlessly. I tested my sound card and it worked fine and I also made sure all the RP 8 plug-ins were installed correctly with the 'Scan for New Plug-Ins' box checked under SuSe Control. Every other sound device works fine, except RP 8. Anyone else having problems with it/or know any fixes? Thanks, M.Bear

The same thing happened to me 'til I went into kcontrol->yast2 modules->hardware->sound card, deleted the sound card, then recreated it. Now, everything works. -- JVOLLMER1@MN.RR.COM TEXT REFS DOUBLEPLUSUNGOOD SELFTHINK VERGING CRIMETHINK STOP IGNORE FULLWISE END
