I'd be too. But when the person asks me why they need to run alsaconf

burn something. When they ask why this or that peripheral does not
work, or how to have it work, I say I do not know. Linux desktop, to
me, is already almost too difficult to administer. I'm happy to have
my own PC running more or less trouble-free. I cannot provide help to
others; I lack the expertise.
I dont think I've ever had to do either as root, certainly not k3b.
Yes, very bizarre symptoms, I've never seen that, and I have suse 10.2
installed on 8 computers including a couple of laptops. His computer
needs some service, there's something wrong.
If he were a windoze user, that problem would not magically cure itself,
he'd have to take it to someone knowledgable and (hopefully) honest, and
get it fixed.
