Re: [gentoo-user] sound (?) but no sound

2007-06-22 Thread Sabyasachi Ghosh

I usually disable the kde sound system and use a command line player (like
aplay or mplayer) for the event notifications..seems to work fine with me..

Hello,

I've managed to emerge the gentoo base, X and KDE and all are running
fine. My
last problem is sound. After several attemps (with the kernel ALSA module
and
ALSA-driver), I've got my SB Live correctly loaded with ALSA Driver - at
least there is no error message. I didn't load any module explicitely. The
system loads emu10K1-gp

However, I have no sound. The KDE control center does show options for
midi on
the SB Live 5.1, I've unmuted everything I could in alsamixer, kmix shows
there is a sound device there.

But kinfocenter says there is no information about the sound device, and
when
I start Amarok,  it says there is no suitable demux plugin.

Everything has been compiled with the arts and oggvorbis flags, and I did
an
emerge -e word to ensure everything had been compiled with the actual
flags.

What am I missing?

Re: [gentoo-user] M$ Excel document converter

2007-06-14 Thread Sabyasachi Ghosh

Not sure about command line, but how about web based converters? (like
docs.google.com ). It can open and save both MS office and OpenOffice
formats.

Hi,

Is there any command line converters from M$ Excel to any *nix readable
format(i.e. for reading in KSpread)? Excel document contains only text and
pictures - no formulas

thanks
