Description luca pedrielli 2011-10-20 10:33:02 CEST

Description of problem:

Gkrellm volume plugin doesn't work.
I suspect becouse now there is not a /dev/mixer.

Pulseaudio works fine.

Comment 2 Bruno Cornec 2011-12-18 17:31:37 CET

On my system I installed the gkrellm-plugins package to check and I do have a /dev/mixer, and the volume plugin is working.

Maybe due to the conf:

$ /sbin/lsmod | grep mix
snd_mixer_oss          22315  2 snd_pcm_oss
snd                    81589  17 snd_hda_codec_realtek,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hwdep,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mixer_oss

I have PulseAudio activated, and use an Intel ICH10 sound card.

I don't really think it's linked to gkrelmm but rather to your sound conf.

Status: NEW => UNCONFIRMED
Ever confirmed: 1 => 0

Comment 3 luca pedrielli 2011-12-18 21:18:32 CET

yes, you are right.

# more snd-oss.conf 

# We need to ensure that no ALSA OSS compatibility modules are loaded so
# we can use osspd easily
blacklist snd_pcm_oss
blacklist snd_mixer_oss
blacklist snd_seq_oss


but i don't know why.

thanks.

Trying to ping 41 bug reports in one move, because nothing has happened with them for more than 3 months, they still have the status NEW or REOPENED, there is no "OK" on the Whiteboard and severity and priority are "normal" or higher.

Is this one still valid for Mageia 2 rc?

If it is and you're the assignee, please set status to ASSIGNED if you think this bug was assigned correctly. If for work flow reasons you can't do that, then please put OK on the whiteboard instead.
If it wasn't assigned correctly, please assign back to Bug Squad and explain.

Comment 5 Bruno Cornec 2012-05-13 01:34:37 CEST

I think this bug wasn't linked to gkrellm per se, so I'll close as invalid. Please reopen if it's not the case.

Status: UNCONFIRMED => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID
