My comment was based on the fact that a day or two ago one reader installed pavucontrol without PulseAudio and then was surprised that it didn't work. I don't think it would be possible to install PulseAudio without Alsa, but I don't intend to try! ;-) :-) PulseAudio is not a dependancy of pavucontrol. lisi@Tux-II:~$ aptitude show pavucontrol Package: pavucontrol State: not installed Version: 1.0-1 Priority: optional Section: sound Maintainer: Pulseaudio maintenance team <pkg-pulseaudio-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Uncompressed Size: 1,028 k Depends: libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.12.4), libatkmm-1.6-1 (>= 2.22.1), libc6 (>= 2.4), libcairo-gobject2 (>= 1.10.0), libcairo2 (>= 1.2.4), libcairomm-1.0-1 (>= 1.6.4), libcanberra-gtk3-0 (>= 0.25), libcanberra0 (>= 0.16), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.16.0), libglibmm-2.4-1c2a (>= 2.31.22), libgtk-3-0 (>= 3.0.0), libgtkmm-3.0-1 (>= 3.4.0), libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.14.0), libpangomm-1.4-1 (>= 2.27.1), libpulse-mainloop-glib0 (>= 0.99.1), libpulse0 (>= 0.99.4), libsigc++-2.0-0c2a (>= 2.0.2), libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1) Lisi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
