Folks,
Not sure how many of you have tried this, but here's a series of
questions.
1. Is the Imac's sound card multi-chanel? My understanding is that
it is multi-chanel, but perhaps I'm wrong. In other words is it
truly multi-chanel or does it do some fancy mixing to achieve
playing multiple sources at once.
2. Has anyone successfully used windows or Linux under Vmware and
had multiple sounds going at once.
These questions are because I've successfully installed Ubuntu
Linux under Vmware on my Intel-based Imac.
The issues I'm having is trying to use Speakfreely. I'm not sure if
its because I pulled the binaries over from my former Debian box
and perhaps I need to recompile Speakfreely, but then my thought
was that perhaps the Mac's sound hardware doesn't handle multiple
chanels.
It also could be that Vmware isn't capable of handling the Mac
sound hardware in this situation. Sounds work just fine as far as
speech and yes, Speakup works great and I even have gotten Orca
working. If anyone is curious about details I'll be glad to share
what I know/learned.
Also, does anyone know of a usb sound card that is fully supported
by Linux?
Any thoughts appreciated.
Scott
