Are you using the alsa-oss compatibility library? Are you getting complaints from the window manager about being unable to find /dev/dsp? With some versions of KDE it depends on libasound.so.1 whereas recent 0.9.x versions of ALSA provide libasound.so.2. What I did as a temporary solution is made a link from libasound.so.2 -> libasound.so.1. In general you should not do this because the major verison is different, but I did it and it work fine for me. I got some occasional errors from KDE apps. Hope this helps. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
