Hi; I have a few issues that I have never been able to resolve that I would like to solve now before I install the upcoming Fedora9. The first one is with sound. As is, when testing, all beeps, clinks, boings and baps of the System Sounds, respond to the Play test. BUT; they do not respond when their appropriate desktop event occurs -- silence on log in, log out, error etc. My soundcard Detection works and confirms that I have a nVida Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio with a AD198x Analog default PCM device. It also says I have an ALSA Driver v. 1.0.15; ALSA Lib alsa-lib-1.0.15.1.fc8; and ALSA Utils alsa-Utils-1.0.15.1.fc8. The sound preferences show Sound Events; Music and Movies; Audio Conferencing (Sound playback) set to Autodetect. The test buttons produce a high pitched sound (as they should, I believe). Default Mixer Tracks: Device shows HDA NVidia (Alsa mixer); PC Speaker is highlighted as the device selected to track and control with the keyboard. ~]$ alsamixer ==> shows only the Master control. I would like to turn these annoying event sounds on; to confirm how they work; then I will turn them off on purpose. -- Regards Bill Fedora 8, Gnome 2.20.3, Emacs 22.1.1, Evolution 2.12.3 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
