The situation would be much better, if all those prefered audiodeamons like arts/esd etc. would have properly working jack-support that should be set up automatically. After some 4-5 years of discussing, what audioservers could be the best I doubt, that there will be a cleaner solution soon. What makes me doubt, that even this can be achieved very soon, is that there is regression as well as progress in that domain, canonical ignore the needs of jackd and ship an unsuable kernel for Ubuntu edgy eft though they had a working one with PREEMPT (DESKTOP) in dapper drake. As for me, I use jackd by default and multimedia-apps that support it properly (like alsaplayer) - if there would be jackd-support by default in debian-binaries for VLC I would not care much. regards z -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFotti1Aecwva1SWMRAk64AJ944mYOxkleuoPOr7nkzRDudmm/DgCbBoj8 AH27UcuDRl1NNdB7sYt6nKU= =fZ+w -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
