Being formerly one of the 'Ubuntu folk' (Arch FTW), I can testify that all you have to do is download the pulse-module-jack.deb from debian and install it over your Ubuntu pulse install. It functions fine then. Well, except for the existing module-jack-sink/source bugs of course. Isn't using pulseaudio and qjackctl/ jackd with pasuspender qjackctl not the easiest way for most people? I suggest to add pulse-module-jack to the 64studio repo but don't install it as default but give users the change to do it. BTW A I right that the sound settings in 64studio are on ALSA not on autodetect? ISn't it better to set it on autodetect except for the capture which should be ALSA? \r _______________________________________________ 64studio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-devel
