My point: Why not just stick the Niel patch in and send it out - NOW, or more correctly, 3 months ago? It isn't like you never do a local fix for other issues, right? And it cannot POSSIBLY destabilize the system any more than it already is - as how it is is completely useless for a large base of users.
It would be a temporary *bugfix* until it was fixed upstream - TO MAKE UBUNTU WORK. The "we don't get paid" argument really isn't that interesting, I must admit. PS, and completely OT: How many completely different sound systems have Linux/Unix had through the years? And when will this be a kernel thing, like it most probably should be, latency and all considered (now graphics finally is.. so why not sound?) -- Occasional sound drops in Wine via PulseAudio https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371897 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
