Hello, I am trying to figure out how to programmatically play sound from with my gnome code. I currently am trying to use the gnome_sound_* set of functions. Here is my code snippet gnome_sound_init ("127.0.0.1"); gnome_sound_play("/usr/share/sounds/shutdown1.wav"); gnome_sound_shutdown(); The code compiles and runs fine. Just there is no sound. The functions don't return anything so I am at a loss at how the user detects errors. Any kindof help would be great. Are there system wide settings that need to be set? I am pretty sure that esd is running. Travis Miller _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
