Re: [Evolution] Sound upon email arrival

[Lonnie Borntreger <email borntreger com>]

Evolution uses esd (GNOME version of artsd).  To get Evolution sound to
work under KDE/arts, you need to do a "wrapper" script to put
esd/Evolution under artsd control.
First: make sure that all evolution processes are stopped
 -> killev
 -> oaf-slay
 -> killall esd
Then: do one of the following:
Option 1) start evolution using "artsdsp evolution"
- if that doesn't work -
Option 2)use the following script to start evolution
->cat /usr/local/bin/Evolution
##
## Deal with Sound
##
#
# For Arts wrapping
#
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libartsdsp.so:/usr/lib/libartsc.so

if [[ ! `/sbin/pidof esd` ]]
then
        esd -nobeeps -spawnfd 4 &
fi

##
## End of Sound Stuff
##

# For talking to Outlook in I/O mode
export EVOLUTION_SEND_IMIP_AS_ATTACHMENT=1

/usr/bin/evolution $*
