Would you think that these changes are necessary, given that I have not
experienced any other audio related issues in KDE. In fact, when I
first did the 4.0.1 ISO install, audio did not work properly. A day or
two later I did an rpm update KDE* and a number of KDE related items
were updated (approx 6). After this, all sound worked fine. The only
sound issues are accompanied by the lack of Java applet execution while
in Konqueror or via the Terminal. I'd hate to mess things further.
Interestingly, I noticed that the Konqueror settings menu has an option
to "Enable Java Globally" and has a path to the Java executable.
Believing that this may be in conflict with the /etc/profile.d/java.sh
file along with the PATH=$PATH:/opt/IBMJava2-ppc-142/bin, I deleted
java.sh. I received the same applet progress in the Konqueror Java
Console as when the PATH was specified in the java.sh file. However, if
I put the java.sh path back in place and deselected the "Enable Java
Globally" option, Java execution is completely disabled within
Konqueror. Is it possible that there are permissions problems with the
Java JRE and or the PATH setting in the etc/ directory? Something must
be our of order here. Thanks for your continued help with this.

The KDE audio problems mentioned were in 4.0, but were fixed with 4.0.1's
2.6.10-1.ydl.1 kernel. However, to take advantage of the fix, KDE's Sound
System must be set to Open Sound System (OSS), and not Autodetect or
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA). You must also set up ALSA to
emulate OSS and disable the real OSS, and you must do this prior to
changing KDE's sound setup, preferably with a reboot afterwards. This is
taken care of in the /etc/modprobe.conf file. The correct sound entries to
put in that file for the 2.6.10-1.ydl.1 kernel were posted to this list by
J. Sacco. I am providing a copy at the end of this message, but be advised
that it has a few very long lines that will be split several times by most
e-mail programs. To see this message correctly, you will need to look at

There are mentions on the forums that audio related functions will not
work under KDE but will under Gnome. Do your applets use audio?
