Maybe this is not the right list, but I have the feeling most 'power' gnome users read here. will we ever be rid of esd? and if so, what will be the successor? As I see it the most important function of esd is multiplexing numerous sound inputs onto 1 sound output (being able to hear the gaim log on while listening to internetradio is a good example). But esd utterly fails when having two sound cards (I have an SBlive! and a usb headset). Having spend something like two days fighting with oss, alsa and esd to get it all to work I almost switched to a 2.6 kernel just to eliminate oss. I really think we need a better way. comments? -- Ron Smits <ron ronsmits com>
