Works. You have to create /etc/asound.conf. Look at the wiki, they say it's 
better to use the cards strings IDs and not the numbers.

This is a complete new install. Took a daily snapshot net-install disk from 
2009-05-03 and installed only the base system. 
Changed sources.list to include sid and installed then Xorg, kde-minimal and 
later other programs that I want.
My KDE3 is on a separate partition, with only the /boot partition shared 
between the 2.

That was the clue I was looking for, I still need to have alsa installed.
After installing alsa-base and alsa-utils, I found out through alsamixer that 
the volumes were muted (and too low). Fixing that produced sound with when 
clicking on the Test button, with the Audigy card selected.

But, as before, alsa regards my onboard card (most of the time) as the 
default, so when I play a YouTube clip for example it is outputted to the 
onboard card, which I can listen to via a headphone connected to the front 
audio jacks on my pc case.
But my boxes are connected to my Audigy2 card and I want all sound (by 
default) to play through those.
How can I make it so that all sound will be output to my Audigy card by 
default?
Now that I've installed alsa, I also have a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf 
file. Should I specify it there? 
Or create a sound.conf file in /etc/modprobe.d/ ? 
Looking at my KDE3 backup the index for the soundcards were now/last specified 
there:
==
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-intel8x0 index=1

alias snd-card-1 snd-emu10k1
options snd-emu10k1 index=0
==

Or should I be looking at a different place?

Did you remove this file before switching to KDE 4?

KDE 4 uses the first working ALSA device that it can find on my Sid
system.

> Where can I start to figure out why sound isn't working?

Place the mouse pointer over the line with the Audigy card in the System
Settings > Multimedia > Device Preference list, then wait for about one
second without pressing any mouse button. You should see a passive
pop-up window that tells you which output devices will be tried. Compare
this with the output of

aplay -l

to make sure the right card and device are tried first.

Re: USB flash mounted as root

[Enzo Cappa]

> How to choose options of mounting USB flashs pls (user, group, rights :
> read and write, ...) ?

If you mean select that option in graphical interface, I don't know. The only 
way is setting that options in the fstab (/etc/fstab).

In my fstab, I have this line:
/dev/sdb1/mnt/penautouser,noauto,noatime 0 0

Anyway, what kind of filesytem uses the pendrive? I'm pretty sure that in my 
case (a standard VFAT pendrive), is usable form any user. If you don't know, 
following are some tips for understand the fstab and how to configure it.

The first column is the device, the second de mount point, the third the file 
system (leave to auto). In the third one you can set the options you need. 
User means that any user can mount, umount that device, noauto means that the 
device don't have to be mounted on startup, noatime is to don't save de last 
update date on files. You can add UMASK, GID, UID to set the permission over 
files, the owner group of all files and owner user of all files (in the device 
filesystem).  The 0's, just leave like that.

dont accept and leave owner to root.

How to choose options of mounting USB flashs pls (user, group, rights : read 
and write, ...) ?

Re: multiple KDE3.5.10 sessions and XDMCP

 Hi Arthur,

 Did you resolve this one?  I seem to recall some magic in
 some /etc/ config files, but nothing too spectacular was
 required.  My K | Switch User breaks, but if I do K | Lock Screen,
 I can then login as another user, which starts the second
 session just fine.

 Does this approach work for you?

 J.




Yes, using the KDE 3.5 K menu's "switch user" worked, at least on my old 
machine (PII-266 running unstable). The new machine has a dual core 
amd64 cpu.


Is there any way to set up a second kdm login on vt8 without having to 
run "switch user" first?


I can post existing configuration files for both machines if someone can 
let me know which are important for doing this. I would like to restrict 
the remote logins to the other machine only (assigned 192.168.1.100 to 
the old and 192.168.1.101 to the new) and *not* use encryption as this 
would slow the PII-266 machine too much.


Thanks for your suggestion and any further help.

Arthur.

aspell and KDE

[Christoph Burgmer]

Today I installed aspell to replace ispell and behold, the long lost feature 
of automatic misspelling indication from KDE3 is back. Seems it was never 
lost, just not available with ispell!
If ispell does not work, maybe the KDE4 packages should clearly indicate that? 
Does ispell normally work, and this suggests a packaging error?

You can also use the ctrl-alt-esc combo, which will let you
 *seriously* kill anything you then click.  Be careful with it
 though.

 Offered as a workaround, not a resolution, of course.
