[Cooker] Strange KDE behavior

[Trey Sizemore]

I am using Mandrake 9.2 RC1 updated KDE to 3.1.3 via URPMI cooker 
mirror...everything appeared fine, but when I logged out and logged back 
in, the kicker bar at the bottom of the screen was gone.
  I then logged in as root and deleted the ~/.kde directories for all 
users and then logged back in as a user to KDE.  Now I have no 
applications to select from in the menu.  And neither does the root account.
  I used Menudrake to try and make changes but they have no effect for 
either user or root.  The applications are obviously there and I can 
acces them when using Gnome, for example.  Also, right clicking on the 
kicker bar and selecting the option to configure does not bring up the 
configure screen.
  I hope this is a simple fix, as everything else appears in working order.

  Any ideas?

Thanks.

[Cooker] SB Live! 5.1 PCI not working

[Trey Sizemore]

I had my SB Live! 5.1 SoundBlaster PCI card working under MDK 9.2 Beta
2, but cannot seem to get it working under RC1.  I changed the driver
from Audigy to emu10k1 and make sure that neither aumix or kmix were
muted.  Any other ideas or is this perhaps a bug?  Did not see one
listed in my search at qu.mandrakesoft.com.

Thanks.
