This weekend I'm struggeling to get Macromedia flash player plugin 6.0r79 to work. The old 5.0r51 did.
In general alsa works well, for example with xmms or alsamixer. But when a flash wants to play a sound, the workstation freezes. When I deactivate the soundcore module in the kernel and the autoload of the alsa modules, the flash animation is shown and no freeze appears. To find out, which alsa module causes the freeze, I activated one of the following module-lines after the other. As soon as "alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss" is active, the flash sound crashes the PC: # ALSA portion alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-sb16 # module options should go here # OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 # card #1 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss It makes no difference if I use the flash plugin in Opera or Mozilla Firebird. Even the standalone version of flash hangs. Because the proprietary :-( Macromedia plugin is already in the latest version - is an alsa version or workaround known, that runs with 6.0r79 flashplayer? Current Environment: Debian GNU/Linux (testing) Standard Kernel 2.4.23 Alsa 1.0.0rc2 Opera 7.23 Multimedia audio controller: Cyrix Corporation 5530 Audio [Kahlua] What is the package "OSS Compat. Library" on the alsa homepage for? I did not compile it - do I need it? Could it help to compile the soundcore module static in the kernel or leave it as loadable kernel-module as actual? This is my first posting to the group, because I can't find a solution after hours.
