The bar shows its all the way up it still not,
it is way to quiet help I got no kmix!
I tried typing kmix in the gnome terminal and it didn’t work 
I only have PulseAudio. Is there anyway to get volume fullest?, or maybe I could download kmix?

I’m not sure kmix is installed on gnome systems by default (not a gnome user
myself)
you might try:
gnome-mixer-applet
from a terminal, but as a ‘always works’ kind of solution, try
alsamixer
it’s console based, use the left-right arrows to move, up-down to alter
volumes, etc.
(I was soooo tempted to just say… “use gmix” !!) Sometimes I think I got
too much Sesame Street when I was younger. Today’s reply brought to you by
the letter G and word MIX… and the number 4…!!

I am going to have to reinstall everything, cause I installed on EXT 3 and is a little bit to slow for me, so I will reinstall Open Suse to Ext2
By they way what kde version on Open Suse 11 I should use?
Ok I will install KDE3 like they said in Irc and hopefully kmix will be there

Try uninstalling and disabling Beagle before you “reinstall because ext3 is
too slow”. I’m not sure how a normal person could tell the difference
between ext3 and ext2 filesystems with todays processor speeds.
As for which version of kde you’d want to try… depends on if you want to
have issues and bleeding edge (non) functionality, or something that works
quite well for the time being.
KDE 4.x is nice, very pretty, and can be problematic and frustrating. Not
recommended if the mixer gives you issues now though…
KDE 3.5.9 is nice, pretty, and works quite well. Based on ancient
programming code handed down from the gods long ago.
Not sure why you’d change to kde because of a faulty mixer though. Have you
looked through the system menus to find the mixer to restart it?
{shrug} Whatever makes you happy…

I am not sure how to restart the mixer…
I will try kde3 and see how it works, maybe it will be easier
It is slow because i installed on external hard drive.
I am guessing usb external hard rive isn’t to fast, so ext2 will do

I doubt ext2 would help you there either.
You’re pushing lots of data through a little usb cable.
I typically get
~60MB/s for PATA/SATA drives directly connected to motherboard
~22MB/s for Firewire 400 drives on firewire daisychain
~30MB/s for USB2.0 drive in USB2.0 port
Not really even curious what a USB1.1 port would do… {shudder}
So for my system, a usb drive would be perceivably half as fast as a
directly connected drive. (But hey! faster than firewire400!!)
That’s likely most of your ‘slowness’.

(Although, as a comparison, I installed opensuse 11.0 on a 266Mhz machine
with 384M of ram yesterday. Now THAT’s slow! bogomips of 512ish.
Installed on an old laptop with bogomips of 26 last week too… yes, I’m
patient!)

It installed fast thought ?
I will try again but with ext2
Hope it works
Maybe the live cd installer would work better but gonna try ext2 for now
