Anyway, there's a package called pulseaudio-esound-compat that you might want to install. It allows an with no native pulseaudio support to interface w/ the pulseaudio system. By the way, I use Ekiga and it works. Although I'm not 100% sure if other apps can use the audio system at the same time as Ekiga (never tried it). -Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
