Re: [gentoo-dev] Broken Sound in KDE3

[Christian Hergl]

Hi Rowboat,

dunno if it was tried here already, but did you, after starting alsa in 
the boot runlevel, have the modules snd-pcm-oss and snd-mixer-oss loaded?

If not, put those in your modules.autoload (for the next boot, or 
modprobe then now), and select the open sound system in the Soundserver 
of kde. Unmute manually with alsamixer, and test the sound, it works 
here that way.

Greetings,
Christian
