[Bug 579300] Re: Please disable CONFIG_SOUND_OSS* and CONFIG_SND_*OSS*

2011-02-22 Thread Grigori G
I don't understand the rationale for this change. It is obvious that many people and a lot of software rely on OSS. The logical route to go about this would be to develop an OSS wrapper first (OSSp or whatever), and after it works to some degree, replace the OSS kernel stuff with it. Doing it the o

2010-04-12 Thread Grigori G
Even without additional animations, a compositor can give you a) a working back buffer for all windows b) limited vsync / tearing avoidance for X rendering c) translucency which are much more important for a snappy, polished feel anyway. Compositing is not only about eyecandy! I'm glad this is fi

2010-03-01 Thread Grigori G
libass 0.9.6 which ships with Jaunty/Karmic is really crusty (i.e. not that old but very outdated already). Updating libass to 0.9.7+ and rebuilding VLC will probably fix it. This should be fixed in Lucid. -- REGRESSION: vlc crashed with SIGSEGV in FcConfigFilename() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bu

I'm also seeing bad interactivity and erratic performance on an Atom-based netbook here. This is especially evident with bursty loads, as caused by the Flash plugin when watching videos, for example. If I remember correctly, the former default was 80%, and this seems to work a lot better than 95

Nothing special at all. apt-get build-dep nspluginwrapper && ./configure && make && make install. You need to re-install all your wrapped plugins into nspluginwrapper after that. That's it. Is this really the right platform to discuss this? -- [MASTER] Adobe Flash does not support WMODE (Flash c

I can confirm that the new nspluginwrapper 1.1.0 development version works a lot better than the old 0.9.x/1.0.0. WMODE is indeed fixed, I can see the menus at adobe.com for example. And at least for me, Flash 10 is a whole lot better in terms of performance -- especially with activated hardware ac

This patch (adapted from the upstream patch) applies cleanly to the gstreamer-ffmpeg source package in hardy and fixes the problem for me. Please get this fix into hardy, it is a very annoying bug, as it affects most H.264 files and H.264 is getting more and more common. ** Attachment added: "ubun
