    Sound vanishes

    Recently I switched my gui in 9.04 to Xubuntu to try it out and I keep losing the sound. Never had any problems in Gnome.
    TIA

    is xubuntu using alsa or pulseaudio for the driver? and does the sound work for some apps or does it not work at all?

    Thanks for the reply.

    Well I assumed it used the same alsa driver as in Ubuntu. When I had the problem I booted into Ubuntu and reset the sound,perhaps that was unwise.
    There is a different layout in Xubuntu and I was in a hurry . Later today I will figure out how to change the sound configuration in Xubuntu and let you know what it says.

    As far as I can tell the sounds does not work on any of the programs.

    I appreciate all your instructions. After reinstalling oss for the third time it finally occurred to me I needed to type sudo in front of the CPanel.sh .
    Now that it is actually installed I need to know how to use it. This is what I get:


    CPanel 0.1.3b

    Usage: ./CPanel.sh [OPTIONS] [FUNCTION]

    Available Functions:
    osspart1 Install OSS, part 1
    osspart2 Install OSS, part 2
    ossupdate Update OSS
    ossrepair Repair OSS

    Available Options:
    -q, --quiet No prompts

    Should I update? The only problem I have is when I try to open the volume control it tells me I don;t have any gstreamer plugins even though I loaded every one I found .
    Is there another gui volume control or could you tell me how to fix this one.
    Thanks
