Warning: Changes in soundcheck script !

[Bruno]

Changes in soundchk script !!Because "udev" makes changes in the way /proc is handled the old script gives errors.I am changing the script to suit the new kernel ( 2.6 ) and /sys ( udev )There is a temporary adapted version posted here: http://forums.scotsnewsletter.com/index.php?showtopic=10524But the ones in The Tips and on brunolinux.com are not yet adapted ( have to run tests first ) !!

I found it.

greg@fangorn:/usr/share/sounds$ slocate KDE_Startup.wav/opt/kde/share/sounds/KDE_Startup.wavgreg@fangorn:/usr/share/sounds$     

[Bruno]

I found it.

Aie . . Slack puts it there . . . . . well nothing I can do about that, all other distros put it in /usr/share . . . :DB) Bruno

[Bruno]

I could make it:

/usr/bin/play /usr/share/sounds/logout.wav

That should work on Slack and Mnadrake . . . will have to check PCLos . . . UPDATE: No-Go . . . PCLos has none of those sounds . . . . and seen that Slack users are more advanced, I will leave the script as it is now with /usr/bin/play /usr/share/sounds/KDE_Startup.wavB) Bruno

In SUSE the startup file is in /opt/kde3/share/sounds/KDE_Startup.wav.I found it with "find / -name KDE_Startup.wav". Perhaps you could add that to the script and then execute the output of it. Any distro with KDE is going to have it somewhere, at least for now.lspci is on my system but it's not in the regular user path. It's in /sbin/lspci anyway.My system doesn't have the service alsa or sound. It uses alsasound (that's why the chkconfig failed for my system on both checks).

[Neil P]

lspci is on my system but it's not in the regular user path. It's in /sbin/lspci anyway.

Is it in /sbin/ for everyone? Could you make it /sbin/lspci by default?(I had to change it to /sbin/lspci to get it to work in Fedora) Edited January 23, 2005 by steeler_fan

[Bruno]

Thanks Jason and Neil !But as Owyn wrote at the time of making it: "Known problems with missing tests on Suse" . . . . I made changes in the script because of the changes udev made in handling /proc and /sys and that caused the script to go in a not ending loop.The lspci is sometimes in /sbin/lspci and other times in /bin/lspci or /usr/bin/lspci ( I tried it in various ways ) so that makes it nearly impossible to get the correct output on every system.The sound in the last line of the script "KDE_Startup.wav" is just a gimmick I added to have some kind of proof that there was sound . . . also here: there is too much difference between distos to get this right all the time. But the general idea of the script --to troubleshoot sound issues-- is not really harmed by that ;) BrunoPS:

I found it with "find / -name KDE_Startup.wav". Perhaps you could add that to the script and then execute the output of it.

If you could tell me how . . and we could have that tested on multiple distros I would change the scipt again . . . . maybe we could do the same trick for "lspci" ?Get the latest version of the script Here

The lspci is sometimes in /sbin/lspci and other times in /bin/lspci or /usr/bin/lspci ( I tried it in various ways ) so that makes it nearly impossible to get the correct output on every system.

Ah, ok.I thought it was in /sbin for everyone, and just some systems didn't include /sbin in the PATH.:w00tx100:Neil

Hi Neil/sbin is usually in the path of root and not for the user . . . that would make that you would have to run the script as root . . . and for sound-checking that does not help us much ;) Bruno

[Bruno]

I think I found something . . . could you people please test this: ( should work on SUSE, Slack and Drake for the lspci and the wav file )

Bruno my startup file for KDE is in /usr/kde/3.3/share/sounds!

[trigggl]

Bruno my startup file for KDE is in /usr/kde/3.3/share/sounds!

Each system knows where to find it's own default waves, perhaps a startup script could be read to find it on each system. Then again, those are all probably in different places also. I'm sure it could be done, but it would be a rather large program that rkhunter would complain about. Who's got the time?

I even made it more readable by adding "==" at the echo's of what that particular check is about and losts of other little tweaks ;)For those you do not know how to handle the script:

1) Select all the text in the code block above. Copy the text.2) In a console type the command "vi soundchk.sh"3) In vi- Press "I" (without the quotes) to go to insert mode- Select Edit->Paste from the console menu- Press the escape key to leave insert mode- Press "ZZ" to save the new file4) In the console, su first and type the command "chmod +x soundchk.sh"5) Log out as root in the console with Ctrl+D6) Then type "./soundchk.sh" to run the script

Have Fun ! Bruno
