The change of permissions is perfectly normal, it is done by PAM (see 'man pam_console', /etc/security/console.perms). The bug you are describing really is http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69320 Thanks for the info about pam_console, I only started looking at perms there since this problem surfaced for me... I hope your patch makes it in before the freeze. As an update to my work around, I don't need to run `alsaconf`, just `alsactl restore`... the permisions had nothing to do with the problem. Thanks for your help! In case your patch doesn't make it in before the freeze, perhaps Caleb can add your patch to the ebuild? Well, it appears the patch didn't make it before the freeze... :( I'm experiencing this problem both with or without KDM. For me, it's just a matter of running alsamixer and restoring the volumes, but it's quite annoying having to do so at every login! Will the patch be included? Fixed in kde HEAD with a different patch. It can be worthy applying it to kdemultimedia-3.3.0, but there's also an easy workaround, just run kmix to create a valid .kde/share/config/kmixctrlrc, or disable "restore volumes on startup" in kmix configuration and use alsamixer. *** Bug 62021 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** closing. |
