Usually when kmix starts, it lands in the "systray" section of kicker. You would then have to right-click->restore to actually get the window. Could this be it? Also, sometimes I get two tabs in kmix, one with no controls at all, and one working tab. I just close the one with no controls and then it works until it fails again :) regards Anders On Friday 23 November 2001 02:07, Chris Carlen wrote:
Hi:
I have been having a lot of trouble getting sound (SB16) to work in Suse 7.3 Yast2 was hopeless, rendering a system in which Realplayer couldn't open the audio device. I used alsaconf and now things are much better.
I can run alsamixer, but kmix wont run. A process shows up in the ps but no window. Sometimes in the past the kmix window would appear, but no controls. But now after running alsaconf, no kmix at all, just a process that sticks in the system not doing anything.
I have tried turning on/off the artsd, but that doesn't make any difference, nor do I know what the heck it is supposed to do anyway.
Any ideas why kmix is broken?
Thanks.
