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.

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
