RE: [SunRay-Users] SRSS 4.1 on CentOS 5.2 DTU plays no sound
O.k. I don't feel so bad now I got the usb to work and it's great, it worked every time. I still couldn't get the audio to work but I was talking to one of my colleges and he told me that it won't work because it's a virtual machine. I really don't believe that because there's no sound card on the server it won't work. I think that's bull because there's no video card on the server but that work fine. Do you agree?

Re: [SunRay-Users] SRSS 4.1 on CentOS 5.2 DTU plays no sound
Most people don't have this issue, so, with respect, the question probably is what unusual thing did you do?. Have a little patience, we'll figure this out. Comments inline: Goodman, William wrote: Yes the host was rebooted several times No I don't have the BaseXsession=/etc/opt/SUNWut/gdm/Xsession.source_wrapper in My /etc/gdm/custom.conf file Two questions... What does the BaseXsession=/etc/opt/SUNWut/gdm/Xsession.source_wrapper in my /etc/gdm/custom.conf file have to do with sound? I sent follow-up mail on this. For RHEL5/CentOS5, nothing. I got confused because your question coincided with a question from somebody on SLES10, where it *does* matter. The point is (and this highlights our frustration with supporting multiple Linux platforms that can't seem to do anything consistently) that SLES10 essentially broke the xinitrc.d mechanism, because they exec rather than source the files in that directory, which effectively means we can't export environment variables (such as AUDIODEV) into the user session. Our workaround for SLES 10 was to configure an Xsession wrapper into gdm that first sources our scripts, and then sources the system Xsession file. You say you're not seeing AUDIODEV in your environment. That's why you have no sound. So either that means that those scripts weren't sourced (although they are sourced on a RHEL5 system, and CentOS5 claims to be completely compatible) or utaudio failed somehow. So please perform the experiment I requested: By hand, run /opt/SUNWut/bin/utaudio. Then, setenv AUDIODEV output from utaudio Then, try a sound app like xmms. This will allow us to determine whether the problem is with the xinitrc.d scripts or utaudio. Then we'll take it from there. Also I can't get the on-board usb to work either.

I hate to ask the obvious, but are the actual audio drivers being loaded and device nodes created? Have you turned on audio in your server policy?
