[newbie] I keep having to redo sndconfig...
Hi Ocassionally i need to venture out of my user session..i logout.. do something then i come back to kde/gnome. Everytime I return, I need to su and run sndconfig.. Because my sound device is being used by something else at least thats what linux tells me. So i run sndconfig, listen to mr torvales, and i'm fine i can listen to xmms/realplay etc. ...Is this something he built into the kernal? Or there a problem with a init file somewhere? thanks, chris Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

RE: [newbie] AOL and Mandrake 8.0
aol no workie... period Please be aware that aol changes windows registry settings, updated/pollutes your network setting... denudes ie, changes your modem dialing string.. and then when you update your windows, using windows update... or when you install software that looks for the windows default setting/files in the preffered locations... those files are gone or renamed to aol equivelents. microsoft will attempt to replace the files, but aol will the re update your system, before you log off... its the same with real audio... and micros media player... its a battle zone don't get me started about the cute little icons each program sticks in my system tray i hate winblows... chris On 23 Oct 2001, at 18:30, Adrian Lynch wrote: I'm a bit late with this one!
