weird, it works here... BTW, do you have libasound2-dev installed? If not you're not even trying to use ALSA, but not compiling it and falls back to dummy backend >> I'm not implementing pulseaudio mixer until e17 is released, and I >> doubt someone will do it.

Pulseaudio can fit that architecture as well, but maybe we'll have to do minor changes to make it look better. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: [email protected] Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stay on top of everything new and different, both inside and around Java (TM) technology - register by April 22, and save $200 on the JavaOne (SM) conference, June 2-5, 2009, San Francisco. 300 plus technical and hands-on sessions.
