| 177362 | 2003-09-23 09:57:00 | Hi all, I just installed mandrake 9.1 and finally got my VCD to play! One problem... no sound. However there is sound on everything, just not XINE. I have tried configuring it in the sound tab of the config windows but still there is no button on the volume dial and the mute button doesn't work. Kaboodle played an MP3 and the system sounds are working its just XINE doesn't want to follow the revolution. My sound card is a Via AC97. Also a few other things I don't know how to do: How do I change the "Start Menu" button. I want the blue K not the geared K. How do I make the desktops independant (i.e. all have different wallpapers) I'm try and install my modem driver (i.e. RECOMPOSE!) and give installing source code (?:|) a shot but I'll write back if I have problem. Cheerful Cheers .ham:-) |

Visit here (www.kde-look.org/) and check out themes > How do I make the desktops independant (i.e. all have > different wallpapers) These instructions are for KDE 3.1.4 ... Right click on your desktop and select "Configure Desktop" then in the "Settings - KDE module", click on the Background icon. Remove the tick from beside "common background" and then just select each desktop and chose what wallpaper you want for it. |

| 177365 | 2003-09-23 11:52:00 | I ran into similar problems in Redhat, and eventually installed the Xine-oss rpm from the Mandrake 9.0 CD I had at the time. IIRC, You can run: xine --help or: xine --info and one or the other will tell you what available drivers there are to use. From there (On my PC) I saw it supported OSS, but wouldnt use it by default, so I simply ran xine like this: xine -A oss And it worked a treat from there on in :-) |
