I have a question... Is there any plan to integrate PulseAudio as the sound server in Solaris?
I have been searching around forums and mailing lists and still didn't find anything about this... but it's becoming kind of the standard in the big linux distros (and GNOME) and it might be useful for solaris as well.. from the webpage ( http://www.pulseaudio.org/ ) : "PulseAudio is a sound server for POSIX and Win32 systems. A sound server is basically a proxy for your sound applications. It allows you to do advanced operations on your sound data as it passes between your application and your hardware. Things like transferring the audio to a different machine, changing the sample format or channel count and mixing several sounds into one are easily achieved using a sound server." and here are some of the announcements or projects of pulseaudio in the distros: Fedora: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeaturePulseaudio Ubuntu: https://launchpad.net/pulseaudio openSUSE: http://dev.compiz-fusion.org/~cyberorg/2007/11/22/pulseaudio-compiz-for-sound-on-opensuse/ Mandriva: http://www.happyassassin.net/2007/12/05/pulseaudio-for-20081/ This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
