James, Unless you have another problem or the compile didn't go well, that should fix it for you. Did you restart KDE after installing the new files? It would surprise me very much that a recompile of the src.rpm didn't correct the system sound problems. Did you install all 3 files? Did you also remember to install the new kdebase3-sessions file? I don't think the last one has anything to do with your sounds, but it should be installed.
After installing, drop down to init3 then back to init 5. Also, you might want to clean out your /tmp directory so as to clear out any leftover 3.3 files. You need to drop down to init 1 to do that though.
The compile went fine, and I installed all three packages. (I had installed kdebase3-sessions earlier). I was already running runlevel 3 and had exited X while I installed them, and I had cleaned out the temporary files, but still, no banana. However... I've just fiddled around some more, and in the Audio Player Settings dialog box in the System Notifications control panel, I had the volume at about 50%. And I've discovered that if I have the volume at anything other than 100% I get no sound (not even quiet sound), but at 100% it works fine. So I'll use it on that setting for now. -- Cheers James Ots www.jamesots.com
