Perhaps this is a FAQ/wiki somewhere, if it isn't then it should be. But you can get some tutorial for the LTSP sound package if you google for it.
> I didn't get anywhere useful. The following will only get you sound from applications that can output sound through Arts or ESD-enabled applications. If you need sound from other applications, save yourself the trouble and buy MuNAS from advancedthintech.com. That's also the easiest approach to install (no, I don't have anything to do with them, I'm just a satisfied customer who is alsa frustrated by the state of open source in this area). To install sound the open source way: - Change sound daemon on client to "nas". Reboot it. Make sure you can play sound on the clients hardware (for instance, install the program "bplay" on server, copy it to /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/bin, and copy a .wav-file to /opt/ltsp/i386, change SCREEN_02 = shell and hit Ctrl+F2 on client and "bplay test.wav"). You might need to disable LTSP sound on client while testing this. (- Kill all arts daemons running on server.) - Run the nas testing applications. - Run "artsd -a nas &" from a terminal in X on the server. - Now you can play sound from all arts-enabled applications. Those who are not, try with artsdsp ("artsdsp bplay test.wav" on the server). - When satisfied, drop "artsd -a nas &" into the X startup scripts (/etc/X11/Xsession.d on my Debian server). // Dag Sverre ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
