[ilugd] Feedback required on recently released distributions and jack retasking
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Those who are using some of the recently released distributions with one of the chipsets mentioned at the end: are there issues with Jack retasking on Linux ? :Sankarshan - From http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/CS-009244.htm Jack Retasking - Automatic reassignment of audio jack functionality based on device type being plugged in. Example: When a microphone is plugged into the speaker jack, the system can automatically re-route the mic data to that jack - From http://www.intel.com/design/chipsets/hdaudio.htm Intel HD Audio also provides improvements that support better jack retasking. The computer can sense when a device is plugged into an audio jack, determine what kind of device it is, and change the port function if the device has been plugged into the wrong port. For example, if a microphone is plugged into a speaker jack, the computer will recognize the error and can change the jack to function as a microphone jack. This is an important step in getting audio to a point where it ‘just works‘-users won‘t need to worry about getting the right device plugged into the right audio jack.

BOSS is not intended to be distibuted behind closed doors. Though it was intended mainly for the Government and Educational domains, it has already been distributed free of charge to a number of colleges and other institutions. Excellent news Tushar but from your mail it also does get conveyed that it was meant as a Government and Educational distribution and one of the USPs (if I may use that term) is L10n. So, are all these additions that BOSS makes being pushed upstream viz to GNOME, SCIM/m17n etc ? Given that BOSS was targeted at Government and Education is there a roadmap to create hardware test suites for certifying and validating hardware ? Are there plans to create an ISV environment around the distribution ? What are the projected release cycles for BOSS ? Is there a roadmap I can track ? I notice that BOSS is being tested against LSB test batteries - is there a particular reason why this is being done ? Can BOSS derivatives be created ? Will the source code be made available online or need I ask for it ? How can I (re)use BOSS for a custom spin ? If you think you could contribute in some way to BOSS, please let us know what your strengths are. You could add your enhancements to BOSS and if found worthwhile we could always bundle them in our next version. So, there's no method for me to contribute directly into a public SCM for BOSS ? Lastly, I don't think Karanbir meant distribution behind closed doors - - what he did point out was development behind a non-transparent process.
