hi Sukant, can you confirm that this is no longer happening?
Hello Adeodato,
The short story is that it still crashes. I'm using Debian, and I apt-get'ed the last packages from the "testing" distribution. On the flip side, I think there might be some setup that I can improve upon, as far as group and user privileging of device files. Still, though, even if my configuration needs improvement, a hard crash is pretty extreme, and I think kmix might need some better exception handling.
Unfortunately, right now I'm super busy on a school project (that has somehow seeped into my Christmas break). That will be over by next week, when I'd be happy to take a closer look at kmix again.
In the meantime, I've been using alsamixer with no problems. However, I thought kmix would have been nice since it docks nicely in the KDE panel.
I'll get back with you in about a week; just wanted to let you know I received your message.
Regards, Sukant
