Hi! Another alternative is to use telnet to connect to your ecasound or any other telnet client, that suites you best. telnet localhost 2868 Worked fine for me... Well almost. You can issue ecasound-commands (iam and commandline). You can receive basic output. Question: Do you let your ecasound-daemon run in the background, I mean bound to no more tty? If not so, you could just se ecasound -c --daemon as well. Hope that helps Kindest regards Julien -------- Music was my first love and it will be my last (John Miles) ======== FIND MY WEB-PROJECT AT: ======== http://ltsb.sourceforge.net the Linux TextBased Studio guide ======= AND MY PERSONAL PAGES AT: ======= http://www.juliencoder.de _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
