Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] Sound Problem, Suse 8.1 with Alsa, Laptop and so on

[Damien Sandras <dsandras seconix com>]

Hello,

Try to do lsof /dev/dsp to see if another process is not blocking the
soundcard. I suspect Artsd is blocking it. There is a way in KDE to tell
to artsd to only block the soundcard when it is using it, it has been
mentionned on the ml, but I forgot when and how it can be done.

Only seeing /dev/dsp in the devices list is normal if you only have one
souncard.

If you think it works, you can go on irc.gnome.org, #gnomemeeting and
ask for a test to make sure your configuration is working. (your
Netmeeting friend can also have a problem)
