Just a note - if you are using hotplug, you may need to put an entry for your OSS module (that you *don't want loaded) in /etc/hotplug/blacklist . For instance, to use ALSA's "snd_ymfpci" instead of the OSS module "ymfpci", I needed to "echo ymfpci>> /etc/hotplug/blacklist , to prevent the OSS module from loading first. HTH, Robert L

Problem solved: I took a closer look at /etc/environment and realized that it
didn't properly export the $LANG variable. Since $LANG is also set
in /etc/sysconfig/i18n, I got it after the fact, so to speak. Stupid
oversight, but everything works fine now, thanks for your help.

Just out of curiosity. Did you find any usefull information on getting your sound system to work with alsa. I've installed the alsa packages and run alsasetup (sorry I'm not sure if that's exactly what it was called), but I still get oss modules loaded and a device error on boot. I can't seem to figure out what modules I do and don't need.

systray spacing bug
Hi all, Is anyone else having a problem with the applications in the systray applet in kde 3.3? They occasionally (after a modifying the panel somehow) end up all spaced out taking up whatever space is remaining on my panel bar. Anyway I can stop them doing this? Seems to reset when I reload kde/kdm. Thanks for any suggestions, -James --- Dr James Cummings, Oxford Text Archive, University of Oxford James dot Cummings at oucs dot ox dot ac dot uk
Re: KMail behaviour is weird.
Hey, As far as your issues, I can't reproduce them :/ But you're lucky. No matter what is set in my idenity, kmail thinks my address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Net result: kmail can't send mail, and I move to Evolution for the time being. Also, the todo list and calendar won't load in kontact. Running korganizer by itself gives me: korganizer: error while loading shared libraries: libknewstuff.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Luckily, I use evolution at work so I can deal.
