Re: Sound problems under Debian

 1. There seems to be no sound at all. 'aplay file.wav' just pretends
 to play but neither gives any output nor returns the cursor.

aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav

plays here. I used

alsactl store -f aplay-audible1.state

to save my alsa settings at

http://iki.fi/lindi/openmoko/aplay-audible1.state

Can you please compare this against yours?

 2. xfmedia doesn't start at all. An attempt to start the program from
 a shell, too, doesn't give any output or error message.

Can you try mplayer first? I can install xfmedia too if it really has
some openmoko specific issue but I'd like to hear if mplayer works for
you first.

 3. The ring tone is just a lousy noise.

You mean you don't like the tune? ;-) I don't like it either and it's
also non-free so it's going to change anyway. If you know python you
can fix this from the source code (apt-get source fso-frameworkd and
search for .sid).

 4. During a phone call, voices are poorly transmitted (noisy), for me
 as well as for the recipient.

That is bit more complex issue. It would definitely help if we could
record some standard test call.

Interesting: openmoko-sound-theme-standard2 was not installed.

Works now.

 Hi,

 I am running 2008.08 and the phone does not make any sound on an incomming
 call or when I get a SMS or an entry from my calendar should pop up. I can
 hear music with openmoko-mediaplayer. The profile in the settings is set
 to ring and vibrate. ring only does not give any sound either.

 Any suggestions what could be wrong? I could not found a mixer app for the
 qtopia stuff. Is there any?

It worked for a few times, but has now gone silent.  Maybe it will get

Speaking of suspend/resume, I'm also wondering if other people are 
having battery problems?  Whenever I wake my FR up from suspend, my 
battery seems practically dead (or a lot lower than it was) even if it 
only resumed for ~1 hr.

Sorry I should have mentioned this. You do not need to use mwester's
kernel. I am running a much more recent kernel from buildhost.openmoko.org
(July 26 I believe) and it works fine. The GPS also works very well.

You just have to have the pactl tool and the two scripts that mwester
mentionis on his page.

Yes AFAIK you need pulseaudio around to make that sound problem on
resume.  Sounds resumes fine, even resuming an interrupted playing
action, if pulseaudio isn't around.

Re: sound

2008-07-28 Thread W.Kenworthy
ok, thats fixed it (changed from dim/lock to dim only and rebooted)

Whats the difference between dim and dim/lock - cant see anything so far
as they look the same?

Also brings up the point - if I am in a meeting and want vibrate only is
it possible to change back and forward between vibrate and ring/vibrate?
- or do I have to turn GSM off?
