I've had much more success with it. I'm running it right now on ubuntu 9.04 beta. I've only noticed two problems... The 32bit alsa compatibility libs for 64b don't have the obsolete symbols exported so skype won't run. These are in the code, they just weren't exported during the build process. 32b flash works. jonsm...@terra:~$ readelf -W -s /usr/bin/skype | grep snd_pcm_hw_params_get_channels_min 466: 00000000 57 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND snd_pcm_hw_params_get_channels_...@alsa_0.9.0rc4 (17) Second, if I switch my profile from S/PDIF to analog out, and then back to S/PDIF, S/PDIF output is not restored. Restart pulse and it will come back. I wish ubuntu would consider this for 9.04. Profiles have fixed my main complaint about pulse. This is a major positive advance for usability. I wonder if pulse could get smarter an use jack sense to not default to analog out on my box when first installed? There's nothing plugged into the analog out jacks. -- Jon Smirl [email protected] _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
