aptitude install x-window-system kde

Then either run startx as a normal user, or /etc/init.d/kdm start as
root, or reboot. That should put you into X with KDE as your environment.

If it fails, we'll need to know more details, such as error messages,
particularly lines marked with EE in /var/log/Xorg.0.log or
/var/log/XFree86.0.log.

using gui interfers with ALSA playback

2005-07-28 Thread David Purton
Hi all,

Recently I built a 2.6 kernel and switch to using ALSA for sound
playback.

But, I notice that if I'm playing sound, doing gui things causes
playback to stutter.

Eg, if I scroll in windows, or change tabs, or drag a window around on
the desktop, or even hold down cursor keys in gnome-terminal.

If I drag a window around for long enough, it sometimes doesn't recover
and continues to stutter even after I've stopped doing this and I have
to pause playback and start again.

It happens using both realplayer and rhythmbox. Both worked fine when I
was using OSS on a 2.4 kernel.

In other respects, I'm running an uptodate sid box with gnome as my DE -
albeit on fairly old hardware: PIII, 550MHz, 256MB RAM, but the CPU
isn't maxed out or anything.

Any ideas? It's quite annoying :(


cheers

dc
