Hey, In gdmsetup you have a "Accessibility" tab where you can set sounds. I selected everything there and set the three sounds but when GDM starts there is no sound. Is there another setting that i need to change somewhere else? And before you ask. my sound in other applications is working fine so it isn't a sound card issue. And a side question also related with the sounds. how do i turn on the login and shutdown sounds of Gnome? when i enable the sounds in the sound settings they are not working and never did in Fefora 7 or 8 (don't remember 6 well). Or are both issues bugs? If so than please verify them and i will report them. Thanx Mark.
