2003-09-20 Thread Pete Barnard
Hi,   I have written a sound server using ALSA drivers which samples stereo sound at 16khz and writes each channel to a unix pipe.  I am using a sonogram to display the sound (which simply reads the pipe).  Occasionally I get buffer underruns which I have put a fix in so that the sound serve

I'm a little bit confused with loading modules and if anybody could give me an idiots guide explanation to the confusion/mystery I'm having it would be much appreciated as I cannot seem to find what I'm after by browsing the net. I am using one computer with a cs46xx card and I do not need to load

Hi, I have just finished writing a sound capture program using ALSA 0.9.0rc7 and Red Hat Linux 7.2. Whilst there are no problems with the operation of the program some users are complaining that whenever they re-boot their machines and re-start my sound program, they have to : 1. bring up alsamix
