Hi folks.
I've just build a new FC4 system on a spare tower box I had and all
worked fine. This system is replacing an old RH7.3 system running in a
rack chassis which has a different motherboard etc.
However, when I transferred the HDD to the rack chassis and powered up I
had 2 problems. This problem is that although the soundcard is
configured and working fine - I ran system-config-soundcard and all
looked and sounded fine - I get an error message when I log into a KDE
session. The Message is:
Window Title: Informational - artsmessage
Window Content:
Sound server informational message:
Error while initializing the sound driver:
device: default can't be opened for playback
(invalid argument)
The sound server will continue, using the null
output device.
I don't get any sound from X/KDE applications, but if I use 'play' it
works fine.
Anyone any ideas what these mean, and how I can sort it? The box is
FC4+yum update.
Cheers
Gary
