Hi, * Gabor Gombas [Tue, 11 Apr 2006 19:50:19 +0200]: > > Tried it, but amaroK says "xine was unable to initialize any > > audio-drivers." when I try to use the xine engine. .xsession-errors does > > not contain anything useful: The original bug is obviously #336437 (all symptoms match: xine engine produces noise, freezes and, finally, crashes). However, the problem you're having with Adeodato's NMU seems quite different. First of all, it's not recommended to compile stuff against experimental libraries unless absolutely necessary (buildds build experimental packages against unstable, _not experimental_). Sure you might have found a bug in new ALSA or discovered its imcompatibility with xine but that's unrelated to this bug. I suggest you recompile against libasound2-dev in unstable or install binary debs built by me[1] and report back. Could you also try amarok 1.3 from unstable? The latter works fine for me with xine-lib_1.1.1-1.1. I haven't tested (yet) 1.4beta though.
