Planty of bandwith.

My soundcard doesn't work anymore, it used to work in 3.1

I hoped it was fixed in the last release:

 - aumix is now started as background task in knoppix-autoconfig 
 (some broken soundcards seem to block on mixer-ioctls, preventing 
 the init script to continue).

But still when I try to run aRts from KDE it says:

Error while initializing sounddriver:
device /dev/dsp can't be opened (Device or resource busy)
The soundserver will continue using the null output device.

Yes, I've tried all the other output options (OSS, ALSA, TOSS)

"sudo lspci -v" output:

00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS7012 PCI Audio Accelerator (rev a0)
        Subsystem: C-Media Electronics Inc: Unknown device 0300
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
        I/O ports at dc00 [size=256]
        I/O ports at d800 [size=64]
        Capabilities: [48] Power Management version 2

As far as I know this card is supported by the kernel.

btw, default en_US keyboard under cheatcode lang=nl is much better indeed.

Anyone have saveconfig/myconfig=scan working with a floppy with this release?

Jester^,

I could not get my save config file read during boot up.
It wants/needs a 20 character passwd. Some kind of encripted passwd?

I'm running 3.2 v.3-24 on a computer at school and the password is for the home not the config file, when I boot it gives me the password error but I continue and when I'm in kde as user knoppix the home file is being used. So what I take that to mean is that during boot it is trying to load the home for root (just a guess).

My saveconfig is not working either (see 3-28 changelog), but so far it appears that PH home is working at least partially, as I haven't used it much so far, all of my kde user settings were kept on reboot but printer and system settings were not.

I noticed in the OpenOffice program when I went under new file, all the type of documents were in german. Is there a way to change this to english?

Okay.. I'm running 3.2 03-28 now. Like the other experimental
versions it fails to detect correct video (3.1 had problems on
some other notebooks too but detected more modes)
so far it goes into 640x480 mode on the Savage IX (Toshiba satelite pro 4200 series and 4300 series)
Trident / ALI on the satelite pro 6000 series and several others
but easily correctable with the cheatcode. So not a real problem.

On my Satelite pro 4270 (Celeron 500 128 mb ram) I've done
a harddrive install, got one ide0 error during install but install ran
through and error was corrected, a few buttons are missing in the
taskbar and again it failed to go higher than 640x480 but again easily correctable and I'm running 24 bit 1024x768 now with the Savage IX installed in X. Hurra!

Funny enough.... I'm now watching a divxrip of Band of brothers
which fails to run on my Windows 98 (with divx 5.03 installed)
through Xine in fullscreen. No hitch, No glitch..... runs nicely.

L8tr... Tom

I've heard that most people have downgraded to divx 5.02, since it's more stable.
