Hi All, Just installed 6.4 on a system that might become a Myth Backend. Where's the normal sound icon gone that usually appears in Gnome? I can see the intel sound card driver is loaded. Which bits of alsa should be there? This is what I've got:- rpm -qa | grep alsa alsamixergui-0.9.0-0.9.rc2.el6.x86_64 alsa-utils-1.0.22-5.el6.x86_64 alsa-lib-1.0.22-3.el6.x86_64 Under System | Preferences Selecting the "Sound" icon gives a dialog box that says "Waiting for Sound System to respond" and the sound system never does respond. I bet I've got a zoo of stuff missing.... Any pointers most welcome Thanks Ken -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

If you don't have a Notification Area installed on your panel, you won't see it. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com
