Hello, Back in December, Kevin Kofler posted a patch to this list that allowed PortAudio's ALSA backend to work without mmap. [1] This is significant because many Linux distributions are moving to PulseAudio as a desktop sound daemon, and PortAudio apps will not work out of the box for users without this patch.
What is the status of this patch? I just realized that Mixxx (and probably CLAM and stock Audacity) won't open your soundcard if you're running PulseAudio, as with a fresh Ubuntu install. Unfortunately, this cripples our applications for many of our non-technical users. Thanks, Albert [1] http://music.columbia.edu/pipermail/portaudio/2008-December/009023.html [2] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=445644 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: High Quality Requirements in a Collaborative Environment.
