Re: Esound and vmware

[Andy Spiegl]

Hi!

thanks for your replies!  It works now.

 I've used ESD with VMWare fine. What are the permissions on 
 /dev/dsp? What user is running VMWare? What user started esd?
Perm: 666
same user for all

But here was my mistake:
 if you start esound with
 # esd -terminate -nobeeps -as 2
 
 it should let other program access to /dev/dsp

I was running esound 2.6.  I upgraded to 2.10 and now it works!

Thanks again,
 Andy.

Esound and vmware

[Andy Spiegl]

Hi!

I tried to start vmware with the esddsp wrapper, but vmware still
complains that it can't access /dev/dsp.

Did anyone find a solution to this?

Thanks and have a nice weekend!
 Andy.
