Further to my previous mail, I should really give you a warning. If you are not used to building software (and from the question (or rather the answer) I'm guessing that you are not), then pulseaudio is really not a great place to start. It needs to be intergrated at the very lowest level of a linux system and requires the latest versions of various components (including udev and the kernel). As youre a Fedora user, if you want a newer PA than the one available, why not install the latest Fedora 12 which is due to be released any day now? I don't want to put you off, but I just want to make sure you know what you're in for!! :) Col -- Colin Guthrie gmane(at)colin.guthr.ie http://colin.guthr.ie/ Day Job: Tribalogic Limited [http://www.tribalogic.net/] Open Source: Mandriva Linux Contributor [http://www.mandriva.com/] PulseAudio Hacker [http://www.pulseaudio.org/] Trac Hacker [http://trac.edgewall.org/]
