Hi, When I switched from OSS to ALSA a few years ago, I started having problems with ESD. In particular, it often would not release the sound device, so that non-ESD-enabled programs could use it when ESD didn't need it.
Then I discovered polypaudio, and since I sitched to that sound daemon, I haven't had any more problems. But now polypaudio is being removed from Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=339589 Are there any other alternative ESD-compatible sound daemons that I could try? Or does ESD work well with ALSA for everybody else? Thanks and merry Christmas, Andreas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
