Thanks for the help. My startkde (sound) looks like this:
************
. /etc/sysconfig/sound
if [ "$CARDTYPE" !=""] ; then
Sleep 1 ; kaudioserver
(Sleep 1 && exec kwmsound) &
fi
***************
I thought the sound card presence is not input properly to kaudioserver and commented
the if and fi lines above. Now it is working.
Shri. L.V.Gandhi has advised to change the name of the file reference to soundcard
instead of sound in /etc/sysconfig which I will
try.
Thanks for the help.
