Suse 11.2 weir

I downloaded the new brand OS 11.2 64 bit, verified the MD5SUM and installed last week in an Acer Aspire™ 5542 notebook and few problems appear:
-I can’t listen amarok, the sound card is installed and proved. Then installed banshee and the same problem (select music file and can’t reproduce, no bar progress).
-I verified the HD and found 3 partitions: /, /home and /swap all formated with ext instead of LVM which I chosen at installation, and the sum of the partitions is equal to 100 GB instead of 320 GB (the total capacity of the HD)
-I found 2 folders called “Lost+found” one in / and one in /home
I’m wondering if this problems are virus-related or are bugs.
I need help:)

No virus, no bugs. Lost+found directory exists one at system level (at /) and one for you as a user (in /home). How many disks do you have in your system to utilize LVM?

yeap,no virus…For the music you have to install some codecs…

Varelov:
I only have 1 HD

Tekos:
The multimedia codecs are already installed, any suggestion?

  1. you do not need lvm on one drive only. The purpose is to tie multiple partitions/drives into a single logical partition.
  2. if the installer did not format the partition as LVM and did not use the whole drive you probably made a mistake.

You should put your sound problem in a separate new thread after first doing a search to see if there is an exiting thread that addresses the problem.

You’re right, I analyzed the output of fdisk -l and found that was wrong because in the install I choose the LVM, (Logical Volume Management) and I have only one HD. Then installed again and choose the ext4 instead of LVM and everything is working OK, amarok is working ok too.
Thanks a lot, I’m happy working with my laptop
