Nowaday, it needs sound support. I am sick of arts/nas/esd etc. I'd like something very simple (no additional buffering, mixing etc, lack of support in apps). My idea is to add network transparency to alsa. I've looked through alsa-lib and found aserver. I configured a chain to use it. Sadly, alsamixer quickly freezes (but it works for a while), and aplay fails with an error. I'd like to make a contribution to alsa project. I will attempt to write some documentation about aserver & co and make it work ok and work through network (now it needs local unix socket). I am completely new to alsa development (never written any app or driver for it). What documentation should I read? What guidelines should I comply with? I feel a bit lost in all this :). How should the patches look like to get accepted? bye, Filip Zyzniewski Ekatalog ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
