Open Sound System

Hi,

it has been a long time since the last install, but I encounter still the same error. By now I am using b112. And the error is again: Failed to attach the driver.

This time I downloaded the package and did not built it myself. OSS version 4.1 Build 1052.

I assume that the gnome-volume-control in Solaris is similar to Linux in that it uses gstreamer. If this is the case check whether with gstreamer plugins bad installed that a libgstoss 4 audio library file exists. If not then you may need to update to a newer version of gstreamer. You are right. So...

Hi Dev, after update_drv to add another alias to oss_hdaudio update_drv -a -i '"pci30b0,103c"' ossxmix showed up which didn't work before. osstest worked with errors. The only thing left is that GNOME doesn't recognize the mixer device. Could you please assist me to get that work too? Gree...

Hi, If you have OSS b1016 then you need to remove that and reboot and then install build 1050. The driver names and bindings have changed and that is the reason you need to pkgrm oss and reboot before installing 1050. The other thing you can try is reboot and then run ossdetect. regards Dev Hi Dev,...

Hi, on SXCE b103 I have the problem that OSS cannot install properly. The OSS version is 'oss-solaris-v4.1-1050-i386.pkg'. It is built from the current mercurial repository. Before b101 OSS always worked when I built it with the sources from the mercurial repository. OSS was my last resort, because ...

Thank you for your hint. SUNWGtku installs legacy versions of GTK. I can't follow the package politics of OpenSolaris 2008.05 ... I don't know why it doesn't load on reboot. Hopefully someone else does... One possible reason could be that for OpenSolaris 2008.05 a different approach for installation...

So for now I have installed SUNWGtk which also included SUNWGlib. So I got the following compile error: "gtkvu.c", line 8: cannot find include file: "gtk/gtkmain.h" "gtkmain.h" is installed under /usr/include/gtk-2.0/gtk/gtkmain.h Either the package is not installed cor...

Hey, cool, enjoy OSS. :) -Ionic Oh my gosh, the journey is not ended ... "ossxmix" is missing. I think due to missing GTK stuff. "osstest" worked right after installation, but after reboot it states: -bash-3.2$ osstest Sound subsystem and version: OSS 4.1 (b 080607/200806181...

Hi, could you please install CSWgawk? I had a quick look at the Blastwave repo and found it there with this name. I hope that's working. :) -Ionic Don't get me wrong, but IMHO I avoid blastwave when possible. As the name implies a blast of packages are to be installed, and that is not my intention....

You're better off installing SFWgawk. (gawk is used for man pages since txt2man uses a GNU extension. Actually the install can avoid it and use a lower-quality method, not sure why it doesn't). So it's me again ... Sorry, SFWgawk couldn't be found in the repository. Where could I find that package?...

You need SUNWusbu package to be installed for that file. Thank you for this hint. For now the build seemed to run smoothly, but another packege might missing. oss-gate/setup/txt2man: line 172: gawk: not found I have an awk installed found in /usr/bin. So if I could do a symbolic link to gawk to get...

I assumed you would fetch the patch the same day.

http://oss.pastebin.com/mf5bbd8a here it is again.

Yeah, I mean the mercurial repository.

So for now I have the problem that configure states:

Cannot locate "sys/usb/usbai.h" (<>, doesn't work)

Hello roman, could you please try the following patch and report back, please? (against current HG): http://oss.pastebin.com/d316e8525 (seems like the Forum is not allowing pasting code - it replaced some necessary things...) -Ionic Hi Ionic, sorry for the delay. If you mean the mercurial repositor...

I missed the SUNWaudh package. But the compilation
still not works. A lot of undefined symbol errors occurred.
Like:



Roman.

Hi, thank you for your answers. What I am using: OpenSolaris 2008.05 Which compilers do I have installed: SunStudio 12 (over the packaging system) To Ionic: I am aware of how to access the path, but thank you. I'll check if I have installed either SUNWaudh, or SUNWhea respecitvely. Roman.
