This is a Ubuntu problem, not a Pipewire one. If it > matters to an 18.04 user, they do have the option of upgrading to 20.04.
i would suggest that edward had the rational perspective the distro is not at fault for "failing" to support something, which did not exist, or was very immature, or proprietary, when the dirsto was released the pipewire devs are the ones who had the option to decide which distros it may be compatible with - obviously, ubuntu18 was not one that "mattered" to them - but no project is obligated to support any specific distro, so there is no fault there either i do not see any "problem" for anyone (yet) - use pipewire if you want to - switch distros if you must - but ... if good 'ol (lean and mean) JACK does not remain as an option, for those who do not need pipewire's extra bells-and-whistles, that could be a problem _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
