I filed this against 8.0 (for "question.wav" - which, BTW, is still missing as well). The bug was closed and I was told to install gnone-audio. See: 81298 and: http://www.angelfire.com/geek/compugeek/screen.png and http://www.angelfire.com/geek/compugeek/screen1.png I think the lockup is really the serious problem here (all the sounds in gnome-audio are pretty bad anyhow) The lockup problem went away during a kernel upgrade. The motherboard was a via KT400 with the onboard audio chip. The phone.wav file is still missing and gnome still insists that I install gnome-audio. This is too simple of a problem not to fix. Just add the phone.wav file and put it in rawhide. It's not like there's any coding. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225 Description of problem: I just upgraded from 8.0 to 9. Under Gnome 2.2, I went into preferences | sound and clicked on the sound events tab. I started playing each sound. When I got down to New Mail & clicked, I got an error message saying the file doesn't exist & then another message saying I should install gnome-audio. I clicked ok & the whole session locked up. I was only able to get out of gnome by pressing ctl-alt-backspace. I was then unable to log into gnome under that account. I logged in by the root account, did a "touch /usr/share/sounds/phone.wav" and then I was able to get in. I turned off sounds. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-audio-1.4.0-6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.I went into preferences | sound and clicked on the sound events tab. 2.Select New Mail and click on play. Actual Results: I got an error message saying the file doesn't exist & then another message saying I should install gnome-audio. I clicked ok & the whole session locked up. I was only able to get out of gnome by pressing ctl-alt-backspace. Expected Results: Should have played a sound. Additional info: Shouldn't phone.wav be in the package? I'm listing this bug as "high" since locking up the Gnome session is entirely unexpected and just too much excitement. In my opinion, this is 2 bugs. 1 file is missing, 2 Gnome goes unstable if the file is missing.
