Strange sound volumn???

olnex · 11-08-2005, 11:26 PM

I installed Red Hat on my IBM R32 laptop, when I was listening to music, it sounds normal at first, then (after a while) the volumn went down, i maximized the volumn (both in RealPlayer and the system settings) but still can only hear a little bit, but sometimes it works normally (usually after a black screen when I'm not using it), why? How to solve it?
Thanks in advance.

What sound daemon are you using? (sorry, not sure if daemon is the correct word)

Alsa, OSS, etc ??

What is sound deamon and OSS?
sorry I'm new to linux

...

BTW, I found some video/audio players that are written in Java and they are very good as they just need
a JVM to run, unlike some other Linux video/audio players that need like SDL/glibc (version > x.x) etc.

But I haven't found ONE single Java media player that support most format, so I'm wondering why there isn't
one.

Yours Sincerely
