[Gwc-general] Re: GWC and Mandrake 9.2

[Jeff W. <we...@ha...>]

Zotan,

I'm wondering if your default audio device is not "/dev/dsp" ?   Rob Fair
submitted a patch to let you configure it, and that feature will appear with
the new version of GWC I'm working on for the Gnome 2 library.

If you think that may be the problem, for now you can edit gwc.c, in the 
start()
function.  Line 984 is:
 
           start_playback("/dev/dsp", &audio_view, &prefs, 0.10, 0.25);
 
And you can change "/dev/dsp" to whatever the default sound device is 
for you
on Mandrake 9.2 -- if that's the problem it will restore your sound.
