I wasn't able to get any signal out through SPDIF (optical) when using ALSA, so I - or more specifically a more experienced friend of mine - switched to OSS. I was under the impression that this hindered me from getting any sound out of flash and that I needed this package to remedy this problem, but bug #573846 < http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=573846 > suggests that isn't the case? > > For x86_64, gnash might be a useful alternative. I haven't been able to make that work at all, but it might be worth having another shot at. Regards, Jobjörn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
