I did this after getting tired from trying to guess which card I need, I wasn't sure that it's the i810. Could you supply please the output of /sbin/lspci please? I attached a file below with the output of lspci -vvv (it's almost 200 lines). Also, make it really matters HOW do you play the files - if with XMMS, then with aplay, as the document says. BTW, I killed KDE's aRts daemon. make sure you either using the ALSA driver in XMMS or if you use XMMS with I changed XMMS to use ALSA. But I have afeeling the more basic aplay is the way to test... OSS drivers - the the snd-pcm-oss drivers are loaded to memory.. BTW: you better upgrade - the 0.9.8 got some bugs fixes (although still not for ALi 5451 - the shit chip inside IBM R40e notebooks..) OK, will look for it. I was just taking what's in Debian and until you said so I though that 0.9.6 is the latest.

However, using parenthesis you launch the whole pipeline in a subshell
so it won't work:
$ ( true | false | true | false; ); echo [EMAIL PROTECTED]
1
Also, it mysteriously seems to be lost after every command in
interactive mode:
$ true | false | true | false
$ echo [EMAIL PROTECTED]
0
Although it does work in non-interactive mode:
$ echo $'true | false | true | false\necho [EMAIL PROTECTED]' | sh
0 1 0 1
If you want a less fragile approach, Oded Arbel gave a good advice.

Cool thanks.

Works for me:

Maybe you execute some command after every prompt.
Although it does work in non-interactive mode:
$ echo $'true | false | true | false\necho [EMAIL PROTECTED]' | sh

Wow, I wasn't aware of the $'' construct. I guess you learn something new
every day. :-)

This approach is also dependent on the user shell being bash. I am using
this shell call from a Perl script. In any case, I eliminated the pipeline
from the command and now this is no longer relevant.
Thanks anyway.

Proposing lecturing activism
Peace, Linux lovers! I'm hereby offering to give free/open lectures/series/courses on a variety of topics... with the proviso that the community (that's you!) help make this have an impact on Linux/FLOSS adoption locally. Right?! I'm a professional, avid lecturer, with years of experience in the training industry, and over 20 years of programming... and militant on free software. (And, BTW, looking for work -- your help most appreciated! :o) The _least_ I'd expect is help in getting a crowd (and I mean _a crowd_) show up. And I mean newbies (!), business people... any potential Linux converts who could use a push. (I disagree with Jonathan: Linux advocacy in IL ain't over -- quite the opposite!) Tentative offerings: 1. Web applications development (see below) 2. Security (for fun and profit; see below) 3. Python vs other PLs (for programmers... and language lawyers :o) Topics I'd need help with/love to help others with: 4. Unix haters (for advanced admins; bring protective gear and iodine) 5. Symposium on taking over the Israeli OS market: advice from marketing strategists and stories from the trenches 6. Continental philosophy... oops! off topic, just kidding et cetera. Oh, and of course I'd love to assist anyone with their own lectures, with didactics, syllabi construction, brain-storming... lots of free advice :o). I hope Hamakor will take this up. And seriously. Details? Really, off the top of my head, mere suggestions (your feedback requested): =Web applications development= A thorough, in-depth coverage of the technologies, the life-cycle, and meta issues. (Maybe a full course, or workshop, and actually building a _real-world_ site!) 1. Web technologies: the standards (IETF, W3C), accessibility (UAAG, i18n...), CGI/FCGI/Apache mods/HTTP servers, caching, hosting, virtual hosting, etc. 2. Software engineering: programming languages (dis/advantages, fitness to purpose, experiences), Web app frameworks/tools, life-cycle aspects (testing, adaptivity...), data modeling, quality of service aspects (confirmability, robustness...), etc. 3. Implementation: systems architecture (load balancing, middleware...), OO, persistence and pervasive paradigm, high availability. 4. Slandering Micrapsoft, pushing penguins and friends. :o) 5. Lively discussion (read: flaming), forking, early releases -- to take home! (Really, let's build a real(ly good) one! Python, Java... no PHP!) =Security= For the curious, the paranoid, the inventive, and the pragmatists... probably not for script-kiddies. 1. History: overview of how infosec/infowar began, phreaking, hacking, cracking... Approaching Zero, The Hacker Crackdown, Underground, technoculture studies, free software activism, government reports (CyberCrime, Echelon...), and so on. 2. White hats: case studies, approaches to infosec (risk management; defense-in-depth), standards (ISO Common Criteria...), permission models (Bell-LaPadula, etc, expert systems)... sniffing, snooping, spoofing, snorting, scrubbing... and Satan and the Angels, too! 3. Black hats... (think so?) 4. Future: research directions, interesting stuff... 5. Micrapsoft slandering no end! And, sure enough, pushing penguins and friends. :o) And so on. I can conjure up more, if there are takers. Speak up! -- Ilan iajava(at)yahoo.com 08-946.4468 __ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
