also, I found this in /var/log/kdm.log klauncher(2115) kdemain: No DBUS session-bus found. Check if you have started the DBUS server. kdeinit4: Communication error with launcher. Exiting! kdmgreet(2109)/kdecore (K*TimeZone*): KSystemTimeZones: ktimezoned initialize() D-Bus call failed: "Not connected to D-Bus server" don't know if its related or another problem I have enabled root login to kde, and found that the sound card works. My user id is member of group: audio. what else must I do to access the sound card? I emerged sox. I login as normal user - no joy. Then I su - and run play /data/Documents/sound/WAV/autodestruct.wav it works perfectly (except my computer does not actually autodestruct :) if I run same command as normal user I get: ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0' ALSA lib conf.c:4154:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: No such file or directory ALSA lib confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings ALSA lib conf.c:4154:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned error: No such file or directory ALSA lib confmisc.c:1251:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name ALSA lib conf.c:4154:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such file or directory ALSA lib conf.c:4633:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such file or directory ALSA lib pcm.c:2211:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default play FAIL formats: can't open output file `default': snd_pcm_open error: No such file or directory I have built a 2nd system (w/ the same mother board) and have the problem. In addition, I have temporarily solved the problem with this ugly hack:
sphere->Curr Dir: /etc/local.d
>cat chmod_sound.start
chmod -R ug+rw /dev/dsp
chmod -R ug+rw /dev/snd/*
chown -R root:audio /dev/dsp
chown -R root:audio /dev/snd/*
now users in audio group can use the sound card!

Looks like you found the problem yourself. To take automatically care of the permissions you will need to globally enable the consolekit useflag and start consolekit plus dependencies on boot. (Which is why we usually require it for kde.) What you're doing is exactly the old-fashioned workaround. Not our problem. |
