Dear Jaroslav and fellow ALSA users, Please, please, reply to this repeated E-mail. If you think this is a bug, let's submit it so it can be fixed. If it's my error somehow, tell me how to correct it. Is there an incompatibility between 0.9.4 and 2.4.21?
Linux, based on RH8. Kernel 2.4.21 I just installed 0.9.4 (I ran 0.9.0rc6 before) Everything seems to be OK, EXCEPT 'aplay' no longer plays AU files. It does play '.wav', etc. Typical error message: Playing Sparc Audio 'whatever.au' : Mu-Law, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono ALSA lib pcm_mmap.c:360:(snd_pcm_mmap) shmget failed: Function not implemented aplay: set_params:840: Unable to install hw params: ACCESS: RW_INTERLEAVED FORMAT: MU_LAW SUBFORMAT: STD SAMPLE_BITS: 8 FRAME_BITS: 8 CHANNELS: 1 RATE: (8000 8001) PERIOD_TIME: 125000 PERIOD_SIZE: (1000 1001) PERIOD_BYTES: (1000 1001) PERIODS: (3 4) BUFFER_TIME: (499999 500000) BUFFER_SIZE: 4000 BUFFER_BYTES: 4000 TICK_TIME: 10000 This happens no matter which options (if any) I use (example for full line): 'aplay -t au -c 1 -f mu_law -r 8000 whatever.au' The 0.9.0rc6 'aplay' had no problems with AU files. The only difference that I can think of is that 0.9.0rc6 was compiled when the kernel was 2.4.20 Please help. -- Alex ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
