Trying to make gkrellm work with ALSA.

[Nathan Morell <frizop@charter.net>]

Hi guys, this is my first note to the list so I'm going to try and get 
some background information to start on this task.

After talking with Bill, the author of gkrellm, I need to find out if 
ALSA supports 'callbacks' (a new concept in c++ to me).

quoted from our email:
----------
A while back I looked at ALSA 0.9 support for gkrellmss but there was no
callback mechanism as there was in ALSA 0.5. Maybe this has changed and
I'll look again (let me know if you have any info on this), but short of
that, it takes a sound server that provides such callbacks. Currently
that's ESD, but I'll probably be adding Jack support fairly soon.
----------


other then the above, and taking a close look at the original source to 
the gkrellm-sound plugin, could anybody offer some advice on my project?

thanks in advance,
--Nathan
