Hello SuSE folkz, I just noticed one interesting thing on my SuSE 9.0. I can't listen to misic CD using KDE cdplayer, but I can watch DVD movies with sound using xine, and KDE sound schema is working too. If I connect DVD ROM directly to the sound card with the auxiliary cable, then I can listen to misic CD's as well. The question is if Linux uses different sound services/fasilities for providing sound for DVD movies and musical CD's?
This has nothing to do with Linux. When you play an audio CD, unless you rip it to your hard drive or something like that, it is essentially working like a regular analog-output CD player that happens to be computer controlled. The sound comes out the audio cable. ------------------------------------------------------------------- DDDD David Kramer http://thekramers.net DK KD DKK D "I went on a diet, swore off drinking and heavy eating, and DK KD in fourteen days I had lost exactly two weeks."
