Open Sound System

Any chance to get sound working on this machine? I'm a bit lost...

A. You can build ossxmix manually: "cc `pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk+-2.0` -oossxmix *.c -I/usr/lib/oss/include/sys" in ossxmix source directory (cmd/ossxmix/). (The last -I is for "soundcard.h". You may need a different directory for the last -I if you don't have soundcard.h ...

The package does build OK now. I just read somewhere to run # make build what seems to be outdated or broken. I'm now trying to compile and install the Mercurial tip version, as I still have the problem that there is no sound output. Any idea what may be the problem here? Btw., how can I enable the ...

Ahh,

actually builds it. Strange.

OK, I finally decided to install OpenSolaris completely and I also have now the Sun Studio compiler, but nothing changed: <snip> Directory preparation complete. Build ID will be 080509 # make build sh build.sh cp: cannot access i386/target/bin/* cp: cannot access i386/target/sbin/* chmod: WARNING: c...

Any chance to get this working?

Probably I don't understand the problem right, but why is the output actually on "side" and not on "front"? This worked in Linux with ALSA without any problems.

It's an Apple Mac mini Intel Core 2 Duo with:

/dev/dsp is linked to /dev/oss/hdaudio0/pcm0.

With osstest I can hear the test sound on /dev/oss/hdaudio0/pcm2 on $ ossinfo Version info: OSS 4.0 (b1015/200803241124) (0x00040003) Platform: SunOS/i86pc 5.11 snv_86 (workstation) Number of audio devices: 7 Number of audio engines: 15 Number of mixer devices: 1 Device objec...

We talked on IRC a bit, but I was not able to build OSS with GCC.

Well, does target/bin exist anywhere? What files does it contain? -bash-3.2# ls i386/target/bin/ -bash-3.2# ls amd64/target/bin/ -bash-3.2# And does /etc/oss exist? What files does it contain? # ls -l /etc/oss/ total 15 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7489 2008-03-24 12:27 devices.list -rw-r--r-- 1 root oth...

configure went OK, but make build does not: # make build sh build.sh cp: cannot stat `i386/target/bin/*': No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `i386/target/sbin/*': No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `devlist.txt': No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `devlist.txt': No such file or ...

Is it possible to build OSS with GCC?

Hi! I just installed OSS 4.0 b1015 on an Apple mac mini with OpenSolaris 2008.05. Here is the output of ossinfo: $ ossinfo Version info: OSS 4.0 (b1015/200803241124) (0x00040003) Platform: SunOS/i86pc 5.11 snv_86 (workstation) Number of audio devices: 7 Number of audio engine...
