Gentoo system with X Windows , Exaile, and Asunder. I put a good soundcard in it and ran the audio output to the stereo system receiver. Added two drives for 4 Gg of audio file storage, as well. No networking for it. Standalone system. ( My parents are not interested in learning how to update a Gentoo box. ) No problems. They got rid of the Cable TV / ISP providers music channels. No need for them now. Corbin
[gentoo-user] [OT] audio controller compatible with Linux
Can anybody suggest an audio controller / speakers that is compatible with Linux (something that does not need Mac, iPhone or Windows etc). For example, if I play the music on my Linux system or listen to an audio I would like to stream it throughout the house. It can be wired or wireless. I have audio/video cables running from basement to every room in a house, so wiring is not a problem. -- Thelma

Ahem! Stupid boy; it only kept its head down for a couple of days. Now it seems to go a day or two between series of a few errors. -- Regards, Peter.
[gentoo-user] metricbeat in some overlay
Hi, since most of the elastic stuff is available I found the one thing missing is metricbeat. Is this available in some overlay? Regards, Konstantin -- Dipl-Inf. Konstantin Agouros aka Elwood Blues.
