All my upgrade problems, except one, have resolved themselves down to operator error. I should fire the dude! ;-) What I supposed were two problems was only one: the KDE program, kcmsyssound, displays the sound configuration panel, but two things don't work. After you assign a wav file to an event and press the "test" button, no sound is produced. And, while running KDE with sound events installed the events don't trigger the sound to play. However, IF I click on a wav file while using KFM, the sound will play. An "event" trigger setting is missing or broken or I've messed up some more permissions. ??? The ncr53c810 problem was merely a permission problem with the xscanimage program. Sane 1.0 works beautifully again. So, for those keeping box scores on upgrades from SuSE 5.3 to SuSE 6.0 put one check in the SuSE 6.0 successful upgrade column!!! You folks at SuSE give yourselves a good pat on the back! Every problem I've encountered, and the sound problem may resolve to be so too, was due to my errors. Can't wait till SuSE 6.1 with 2.2.x kernel support comes out, or, I may do it myself just for grins! Jerry
I think I need to remove the new PCMCIA Card manager and replace it with the old one.??? Symptom: the scsi is recognized at boot, but sane 1.0 won't show it for selection. the OSS plays midi and cdrom audio great, but the synthesizer won't play *.wav files so KDE is not talking to me anymore. I've checked the IRQ's and the iobase addresses and see no conflicts. Is my dianosis correct, or has this newbie blundered again? PS. Everything else is working great! Love the 4.5 version of Netscape. Fonts are crisper, bolder, and bigger using the same settings as 4.05. Really nice. Applix runs great! WP8 runs great. Visual TCL, ddd, cbb, everything except the scanner and synthesizer are great! BTW, for those that need some help with SuSE's german docs: AltaVista has a translator engine called babelfish which converts the german html pages to english well enough to get the gist. Sometimes nearly 100%.
