I've been playing around a bit with playing music nicely under Plan 9, but I've run into a few problems. First, while trying to play music over drawterm from home, the audio output is very choppy and slow--I'm pretty sure this has to do with the fact that streaming PCM data over a cable connection is not a good idea. If I set up a cpu server here at home that boots from that remote filesystem, I should be able to drawterm to that and play music from there to avoid the streaming problems, right?
madplay works fine for playing stuff when I'm on the LAN with my CPU server, but I'd rather use 'juke' for the playlist and music sorting capabilities. However, the map files are tedious, to say the least, so I'd like to use Axel Belinfante's perl scripts to generate the maps... but the perl installation seems to expect a kfs filesystem. Can someone tell me how to install it on fossil? Lastly, is anyone working on sound drivers for a Thinkpad T22? I'm using one as a terminal, and besides the lack of audio capabilities everything works great. I'm under the impression that the T22 is one of the more compatible and widely used laptops, so I thought maybe somebody would be trying to make a driver for it. Thanks John
