Description Willem Verhagen 2004-12-17 22:56:41 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.2)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs

When I execute kmixctrl in a console I get the following output:

QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used
QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used
kmixctrl: ERROR: snd_ctl_open err=No such file or directory
kmixctrl: ERROR: snd_ctl_open err=No such file or directory

Prior to the installation of the kdemultimedia rpm's from Mandrake it worked fine.

Kmix itself still works.

My distribution is Mandrake 10.0 official.

uname -r: 2.6.3-15mdk-i686-up-4GB

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance

I know, isn't this still a bug?
Comment 3 Christian Esken 2004-12-20 12:37:41 UTC
Probably.
It yout be Mandrakes fault, your fault or KMix's fault.

I don't beleive it is a KMix bug, and that you or Mandrake changed the sound setup. The following message appears if you have no soundcard or no souncard driver:

kmixctrl: ERROR: snd_ctl_open err=No such file or directory 

Probably Mandrake made ALSA default or you installed a TV card or something like that.

Dear bug reporter.
Do you have any major problems or is it just that console output that you are concerned about?

Comment 5 Christian Esken 2005-02-06 14:34:21 UTC
Dear bug reporter. Some volume restauration issues have been resolved in KDE3.3.2. So I would like to ask the bugreporter to try KDE3.3.2. 

Please give some feedback - please tell whether it is OK, or not OK, or when you intend to test it.
Comment 6 Christian Esken 2005-08-09 09:39:02 UTC
There's no feedback from the bug reporter since over 7 months (he did not even bother to give an estimate about when assumes to test the fix).
As we beleive this is a Mandrake bug, this bug report is going to be closed.
