[gentoo-user] Optimum sound settings for QEMU VM?

2016-03-28 Thread waltdnes
I'm involved in beta testing Gstreamer 1.x support for HTML5 under Pale Moon (a Firefox fork). So far so good; it works. I use a QEMU VM for some building and testing. Things work great on a real physical machine, but audio absolutely sucks in the QEMU VM. I get an annoying warble-stutter

James, Thanks for your response and suggestion ! Rich0's kernel crash dump page is interesting to me. I think that I could find some useful information in it. I used Gentoo Live DVD to install Gentoo into my laptop. I will use it to check VGA configuration again this weekend. Thank you !

Mick, Thanks for your response and suggestion ! When compiled the new kernel, there was no error message. I can use the new kernel to boot my laptop successfully. So that I am sure that the relative firmware filenames I gave are correct. I will try another kernel version or Evergreen firmware

The recipients mail server could still see the message in plaintext. If you are concerned your correspondent's mail server might be used to try to read their messages then another layer of encryption is needed that only the recipient themselves can decrypt and that would be GPG/PGP. It depends

Ahh, OK. So secure communications between all these clients. The two big players for client-side encryption for email or messaging data would be GPG and OTR; for VoIP you would want to look into ZRTP. There are several clients that support these three protocols on all the platforms you've listed

Do I understand correctly that you're looking to set up a Gentoo server as a "hub" from which you can retrieve your mail using any of your client systems? If I understood correctly, interoperability should be easy because mostly it comes down to IMAP/SMTP/POP3 and support for those protocols is
