2008-04-07 Thread Forest Bond

pulseaudio enabled on dist-upgrades?

2008-04-07 Thread Matt Price
i notice on my hardy upgrade that pulseaudio, though installed, is not active by default. is there a standard way to enable it on upgrades? the wiki lists this for gutsy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio but that looks dated. happy to write up any changes for the wiki if a developer knows more
