When I first installed cooker, I did get some sound
with gnome. After logging out and back in, I don't.
Before I start the gnome session,
[jean@rocks jean]$ cat .gnome/sound/system
[settings]
start_esd=true
event_sounds=true
But as soon as gnome starts
[jean@rocks jean]$ cat .gnome/sound/system
[settings]
start_esd=false
event_sounds=false
Sound *is* supported in the kernel
[root@rocks jean]# lsmod

[root@rocks /dev]# ls -ld dsp audio0 mixer

crw------- 1 jean audio 14, 3 Aug 23 01:37 dsp
crw------- 1 jean audio 14, 0 Aug 23 01:37 mixer
When gnome starts, it does start esd
[jean@rocks jean]$ ps ax | grep esd
3843 ? S 0:00 esd -nobeeps -as 30
3932 pts/0 S 0:00 grep esd
and I am able to start kmix but not gmix (No mixers found. Make sure
you have sound support compiled into the kernel.)
Esd does not seem to work, although the process is there. Xmms is not
working with the esound output plugin. Xmms does work with the oss
output plugin and when I do so, kmix is perfectly capable of adjusting
the volume.
I tried to kill and start esd by hand with various options but without
success.
User root has the exact same problem (confirming this is not a permission
problem).
I'm using gnome-media-1.2.0-11mdk and esound-0.2.19-6mdk on the smp kernel
kernel-smp-2.2.17-12mdk. Xmms is xmms-1.2.3-1mdk with xmms-esd-1.2.3-1mdk.
The sound module reports the following at boot time
es1370: version v0.31 time 11:43:04 Sep 23 2000
es1370: found adapter at io 0xa400 irq 10
es1370: features: joystick off, line in, mic impedance 0
Note that kde also gives no sound since the first boot after the install.
