Omar, RE: error: period size 48 is not supported by playback (64). This is an old bug which should no longer be in the source code packages. Something did not get properly replaced by me or at the Repository The fix is described in: http://helllabs.org/patch/20070710_slmodem/slmodem-2.9.11-alsa-period-size.patch ------- diff -rud slmodem-2.9.11-20080629-orig/modem/modem_main.c slmodem-2.9.11-20080629/modem/modem_main.c --- slmodem-2.9.11-20080629-orig/modem/modem_main.c 2005-09-22 10:05:27.000000000 -0300 +++ slmodem-2.9.11-20080629/modem/modem_main.c 2007-07-10 14:37:33.000000000 -0300 @@ -379,7 +379,7 @@ ERR("cannot set periods for %s: %s\n", stream_name, snd_strerror(err)); return err; } - if ( rsize != size ) { + if ( rsize < size ) { ERR("period size %ld is not supported by %s (%ld).\n", size, stream_name, rsize); return -1; ------- with an update to your package release "20080629" It can be applied at the base of slmodem package with: $ patch -p0 < size64.patch, If you save the above section between the ------ as size64.patch Note that all the indents are made with TAB. I'll also send it to you as size64.patch.gz After your do in the modem/ folder make clean make SUPPORT_ALSA=1 Don't bother with the "make install".
