So jack is not running. IMHO it would be best to set up jackd on your box - you'll be rewarded with excellent audio performance. > can't play : open read /dev/dsp: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type > [audio.c[576] linux_audio_open_with_error]can't play: no audio > supportcan't play: no audio support Hmm, here snd is trying to use OSS - pretty much outdated on modern distributions/kernels. But why no alsa? Did you compile snd without alsa support? Note: On a Debian system you need to have libasound2-dev installed, otherwise there won't be alsa support. I don't think it's an alsa problem, but you can test alsa support in your kernel with: $ aplay -l This should list all alsa output devices. To test for the precence of alsa development files, run: $ pkg-config --modversion alsa HTH Ralf Mattes _______________________________________________ Cmdist mailing list [email protected] http://ccrma-mail.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/cmdist
