Description Cameron Meadors 2006-10-26 17:48:58 UTC 
hal-resmgr is not installed by default on 64bit installs.  This results is access to hardware assigned by resmgr to fail.  For example, the sound volume applet in GNOME does not work because the sound device cannot be accessed.  Sound works fine for root
Comment 1 Andreas Jaeger 2006-10-27 06:02:21 UTC 
shouldn't hal-resmgr be required by some package?
Comment 2 Ludwig Nussel 2006-10-27 07:31:14 UTC 
Maybe. But which one is suitable?

> whatdependson -R hal-resmgr
hal-resmgr:
 - hal-resmgr-debuginfo [hal-resmgr=0.1_SVNr122-2]
 - k3b [hal-resmgr=0.1_SVNr122-2]
 - kdebase3-SuSE [hal-resmgr=0.1_SVNr122-2]
 - pilot-link [hal-resmgr=0.1_SVNr122-2]
Comment 3 Andreas Jaeger 2006-10-27 07:38:03 UTC 
But it's needed by the desktops?  So, should kdm/gdm require it - or should I just add it to one of the patterns?  To which one:
* basesystem pattern?
* X11 ?
* GNOME/KDE ?
Comment 4 Ludwig Nussel 2006-10-27 07:51:00 UTC 
I suppose hal is in base system anyways so I'd add hal-resmgr there.
Comment 5 Andreas Jaeger 2006-10-27 08:05:46 UTC 
Ok, done.
