Default KDE 3.2.0: no sound

I've just installed KDE 3.2.0. Nice piece of work!!

Unfortunately when I start KDE up KNotify crashes. A moment later I get the
message:

"During the previous startup KNotify crashed while instantiating KNotify.
Do wish to try again or disable aRTs support?"

I'm unable to get sound then.

If its of any help, I use the via82cxxx_audio module, which works fine with
kde-3.1.4 and its predecessors. I've installed all of the KDE 3.2.0
packages.

If I try to load KMix, I get the message:
"kmix: error while loading shared libraries: libxine.so.1: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory"

Maybe this is relevant???

Another minor irritation - drag and drop doesn't work in a terminal window
any longer.

Can anybody enlighten me?

KMix is compiled (linked) with libxine.so, so yoy have installpkg libxine...

Drag and drop in text terminal? What is this? :-)

installpkg alsa-lib. KDE is linked with it.

P.S. I have vt8235 and using OSS works fine.

libxine...

Thanks - these worked. I think my alsa-lib wasn't up to date or something
like that. Also didn't have xine-lib installed (KDE 3.1.x seemed to work
without it).

R.
