[Desktop-packages] [Bug 371897]

I guess most people know it by now, but I've finally had some time to try it out myself, so... https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-staging/wiki/Installation Wonder how long it'll take for pulse related patches to get into upstream Wine (if they ever will), but so far this is the closest thing

We should all acknowledge that they're not gonna add pulseaudio support, due to reasons that lack any technical relevance (whatever you say, "use a plugin for alsa" makes any argument used along a *joke*). After all, this project belongs to AJ & his crew, so we really can't do anything to force a c

2013-11-23 Thread Maurizio Stefano Oliveri
Just a friendly reminder, but after another 4 months of waiting, how is this being handled? Is pulseaudio support still considered trivial/unneeded, although it's mandatory on some systems (eg. those on which a good/easy way to control audio streams is needed)? I'd also like to add that using the

I was waiting to ask this as well... Since wine 1.6 is out now, will winepulse be one of 1.8's goals? I haven't seen many references to this on the mailing list either lately -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in U

So, it's been a month since the last update about this... How are things going? Will winepulse make it into upstream? Has there been an actual collaboration between Maarten and the devs? Also, just for the record: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTIxOTg By the way, I think thi

2012-10-16 Thread Maurizio Stefano Oliveri
I know I'm just a user and I probably don't understand much of wine's developement, but Maarten put a lot of effort into a patch that fixes an issue ( or a serious lacking, up to you ) that wine'd had for 5 years now, shouldn't that be enough to prove himself to the devs' team? At least take a

2012-10-13 Thread Maurizio Stefano Oliveri
Many people who tried Maarten's winepulse can testify how well it works. Even if there'd been some misunderstandings in the past, he put much effort in his work, in an area where upstream wine's progress was non existent. Face it, "supporting" pulse via alsa-plugins is just not viable, it didn't
