I have an x86 chroot set up on my native amd64 system. I always just assumed that as long as I had the x86 pulse packages installed, everything would Just Work. But from doing some testing yesterday, this doesn't seem to be the case. If I'm running pulseaudio in the native system and then switch to the chroot and try to do a paplay I get the following: demonbane at Thief:~$ paplay ~/startup3.wav shm.c: shm_open() failed: Permission denied paplay: pulsecore/pstream.c:221: pa_pstream_new: Assertion `pool' failed. Aborted My /tmp directory between the two roots is shared, so the x86 chroot can access the /tmp/pulse-username directory and all files. I can also run GUI applications from within the chroot so I know that my X permissions are ok. If I try to run pulseaudio from within the chroot, I can only do so with the --disable-shm flag and with no configuration loaded. I then manually load the necessary modules, and it works fine from within the command prompt. But trying to use paplay still fails (presumably because paplay doesn't appear to support the --disable-shm flag). So any ideas on what I can do here? -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY! Encrypted mail preferred.
