That too. I don't know if x11 forwarding uses dbus activation though and with a minimal setup he won't have any programs to start it. >> Next problem is: that armbian offers a LOT of pulseaudio >> related packages...any hint what I need to install as a >> minimalistic solution (this is an embedded device with >> far less resources and far less hoursepower...)? > > I have no experience here, sorry. > >> And: What do I need to install on my GENTOO PC? > > Well, at minimum media-sound/pulseaudio.

I don't know exactly cause I just noticed that I have a lot more stuff enabled than I need. You definitely don't want alsa-plugin or your ALSA programs will use pulseaudio. >> Thanks a lot in advance for any help! >> >> Best regards, >> Meino > > HTH > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJXjlsjAAoJEPbOFX/5UlwcLCwP/1jasCvsWuYkIInjYHkfTWCm N1/zvm/Vub/O9EG5IErlh1M5wqo3utZq2CVUbBDzG1j7ysJ/+870EHtsuNJUVDHQ 1/4MHy3ICRJ6Ax53M14ehjujPEFsxX398cV99LYDu2SH+beyPdDME42Zfevb0jKM oOEfdGTayygmmgLEH7wozspOELpOoSt7TnWK6/uztugRA6ivbaamF8xu9rY8Mzpn Uv5g8qJeXRLUWR9zSa9yumjQa1ECV7VvvdGpLiQ6QLyOxHjrQzMIxWZDcH7BSREX mmDWwLbq1f7GZVuNzspdazq83DDSyxlA+1x5ay4y0f6Yvh2jDG8MJa0UgKcr7KuI vKeUFNR75GpYzy2WV74dnt/9oOqhCHVVox6NSJvLF9obn/LvXnLLDHDx+DuW3hgO KMzWTd96zBL+Hom6cLGfVH0ldM2RQd1Ltr5FnbADz+lt0hRvlEOt7jTXiXre93FN gVVI5J5AfT2rCvfUDKSXz1Le1oqLNjBN+2bkSUmLWzZqgvxPJLAmJZUMiHeeb8lE AL64//BZH6YzMaT78dY9TkM4ORNgsjmP1zaB65QrG3jsuqW02ZN6+GJhWjhYNTZA q7z3MzMzWuerGSBujcH/qSl4+7XQ8P/TTx9nrPMbBetwkgR5Euy7qbqSxCnorF9c K/uczqrCWenx5qGDzTL0 =WJc9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
