Updated quite a few packages this morning, including tdm. I could hardly believe my ears, but a tdm restart played the kde sign-on music, so I got a terminal on tty1 and ran speaker-test -c2, worked a treat.
Rebooted just to make sure I wasn't hallucinating, worked again.
So you found whatever was killing my audio as soon as x started.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Did I say it yet? A tip of my Woolrich hat, and a hearty Thank you.
Do I dare ask what it was?
Either bug 2844 or 2845, most likely the second one. http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2844 http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2845
If you didn't have all arts/tdemultimedia packages installed (perhaps because of a selective installation), playing OGG files was crashing the sound server.
I think I had it all, and haven't added anything tde related recently.
Glad you are enjoying the fix :-)
Yes, and because in my excitement over its working, I neglected to start ~/bin/mailwatcher after the reboot, which starts fetchmail for me, and links the incoming email directly into kmail, I did not get the first thank you message back, and just now sent another when I saw there had been no incoming while I was taking a morning nap. Fixed, 31 fetched when fetchmail was launched.
Can I blame it on oldtimers? :) If you're ever in north central WV USA, I've got an imitation (I'm a DM-II so its near beer) hand cooler for all.
Cheers Michele
