Hi all, Box is running FreeBSD 6.1 Stable from Aug 11th 2006. Sound card is Intel HDAC, with dev-driver from Andrea , via multimedia@ I decided to give the esound server a try ( audio/esound). xmms + mplayer behave nicely, but it seems that linux apps dont agree on how to use it. Found from linux-firefox (from a flash animation, coming from linux-flashplugin) doesnt work at all when using audio/esound. Skype sees the /dev/dsp as already locked by other app. I tried 'esddsp skype' but i get : $ esddsp skype ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/local/lib/libesddsp.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/local/lib/libesd.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. I then tried audio/linux-esound, (and had to install audio/linux-alsa-lib too), but it seems /compat/linux/usr/bin/esd cannot find the sound device: $ /usr/compat/linux/usr/bin/esd ALSA lib confmisc.c:672:(snd_func_card_driver) cannot find card '0' ALSA lib conf.c:3493:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: No such device ALSA lib confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings ALSA lib conf.c:3493:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned error: No such device ALSA lib confmisc.c:1072:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name ALSA lib conf.c:3493:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such device ALSA lib conf.c:3962:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such device ALSA lib pcm.c:2099:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default i tried mounting devfs in /compat/linux/dev/ and pointing esd to it ( -d /compat/linux/dev/dsp) but: $ /usr/compat/linux/usr/bin/esd -d /compat/linux/dev/dsp - using device /compat/linux/dev/dsp ALSA lib pcm.c:2099:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM /compat/linux/dev/dsp so.... 1) is it possible to run a sound server (i.e., basically something that allows several streams to play simultaneously without locking the dsp) so that both native AND emulated apps will be happy with? 2) am I missing something big ? thanks! Beto
