I guess most people know it by now, but I've finally had some time to try it out myself, so... https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-staging/wiki/Installation Wonder how long it'll take for pulse related patches to get into upstream Wine (if they ever will), but so far this is the closest thing

We should all acknowledge that they're not gonna add pulseaudio support, due to reasons that lack any technical relevance (whatever you say, use a plugin for alsa makes any argument used along a *joke*). After all, this project belongs to AJ his crew, so we really can't do anything to force a

(In reply to Susan Cragin from comment #413) My above post is confusing in one regard. I was able to get Youtube music on my linux Firefox, and NatSpeak on my wine, simultaneously. I did one more test. I set pulseaudio autospawn to No, killed pulseaudio, and started Natspeak wine. Natspeak

2014-05-15 Thread Maurizio Stefano Oliveri
(In reply to Ben Klein from comment #404) One of my major objections to the existing Winepulse code is that it seems to completely ignore MIDI support. Even without the other hurdles to inclusion, an audio driver simply would not be considered if it will completely break applications that ask

Just a friendly reminder, but after another 4 months of waiting, how is this being handled? Is pulseaudio support still considered trivial/unneeded, although it's mandatory on some systems (eg. those on which a good/easy way to control audio streams is needed)? I'd also like to add that using the

[Bug 1226314] [NEW] Wine and Debian compatibility (versioning numbers)

2013-09-16 Thread Maurizio Stefano Oliveri
Public bug reported: Since Ubuntu and Debian use different versioning numbers for some packages, Wine is not installabe on Debian systems through the PPA. The issue is libpulse0, at version 1:0.99.1 on Ubuntu and 4.0-6+b1 on Debian. Wine requires this library to be = 1:0.99.1, so the latter

I was waiting to ask this as well... Since wine 1.6 is out now, will winepulse be one of 1.8's goals? I haven't seen many references to this on the mailing list either lately -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

So, it's been a month since the last update about this... How are things going? Will winepulse make it into upstream? Has there been an actual collaboration between Maarten and the devs? Also, just for the record: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_itempx=MTIxOTg By the way, I think

2012-10-16 Thread Maurizio Stefano Oliveri
I know I'm just a user and I probably don't understand much of wine's developement, but Maarten put a lot of effort into a patch that fixes an issue ( or a serious lacking, up to you ) that wine'd had for 5 years now, shouldn't that be enough to prove himself to the devs' team? At least take a

2012-10-13 Thread Maurizio Stefano Oliveri
Many people who tried Maarten's winepulse can testify how well it works. Even if there'd been some misunderstandings in the past, he put much effort in his work, in an area where upstream wine's progress was non existent. Face it, supporting pulse via alsa-plugins is just not viable, it didn't

I'd like to report as well that Maarten's patch used by Ubuntu Wine Team on launchpad actually fixes every sound issue I was experiencing, and it actually allows me not to worry about restarting pulse and wine every 30 minutes or so... And I'm somehow getting better overall performances too --

Yes, that is a common problem. It happens with most games if you run them for enough time, 1 hour into Left 4 Dead 2 and the audio dies (just for wine of course, other programs aren't affected at all), the only way to get it back is to restart both pulse. By the way, restarting pulse means that

(In reply to comment #340) Fire up bugs please in case you've got problem after compiling and installing latest alsa-plugins from git. Whining is a cool thing but the only way to get bugs fixed is to fire up bugs and do anything you can to sort them out. Sorry for the little rage in my last

Then I guess it's either one of these 3: 1. Debian (and some others) use broken version of alsa-plugins 2. Ubuntu uses some custom patches (henche the 1.0.24-0ubuntuX version number) 3. I've turned selectively deaf :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs,

(In reply to comment #329) Thus, answering to your initial question: there were some PA compatibility fixes addressed during Wine's sound subsystem rewrite but you should always stick to latest versions of all components of modern linux desktop sound subsystem to have most old bug fixed (and

2011-10-02 Thread Maurizio Stefano Oliveri
A link from your link suggests that a PulseAudio alsa-plugin fix may be in Ubuntu 11.10 that addresses buffer underrun issues. This is a good thing, but does mean that those stuck on other Ubuntu versions (or non-Ubuntu distros using older PulseAudio versions) may still have issues with Wine +
