Default Re: 11.1 sound & webcam

Once again, thanks for all your help. I managed to get the webcam working, but I have to do this

Code:
bash -c 'export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype' &
each time I open the program. On that link, How to install logitech Quickcam E2500 - openSUSE Forums mentioned earlier, it says this:

Quote:
- you can do an application luncher with this command so you don't type the command in all the time.
I'm not quite sure what that means.

For the sound card, I followed the advice here: SDB:Muted Sound Card - openSUSE
But it still doesn't work when I restart. Do you guys have any suggestions?

Also, I still am not sure why some of my DVDs are not even recognized by the OS, but others are. But these same DVDs are recognized if I restart with the DVD already in the drive. Note, I'm not asking for help on playing DVDs. This isn't the right forum for that, after all.

Thanks!
