The one that gets mentioned to me any time that I've said something about the slowness/chaos of the KDE menu system. Of course, you need to know an applicable keyword to enter. >> When all else fails, locate the sound files used when starting and >> stopping, and re-record them at quarter volume levels. > And how to do that when you have no idea of that particular pair of filenames? > > Chuckle. There is always a smartass in the crowd, usually me, Tim. :) Use locate to find sound files (ogg, au, wav, whatever...), play what sounds likely to be the start and stop sounds, or dump the lot into something like xmms, and listen to them all. When you find the right ones, you can modify them. A brute force and ignorance approach, but it works. I found all sorts of interesting sound effects that way, before. And pranked mum by making her computer make animal noises for each and every feature her sound preferences had actions for. Drove her mad for a couple of days, before I relented and removed them. ;-) -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.19-78.2.30.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
