I'm sorry, but I don't understand your description of the problem at all and your mention of the "test sound" functionnality is even more confusing as gnomemeeting has no such functionnality except in the configuration assistant where you should hear yourself speaking when running the test, but that won't work if you have no soundcard detected. > Evan > > > > > > On Wed, 2004-03-31 at 15:22, Damien Sandras wrote: > > If both OSS and ALSA do not detect any device, are you sure that they > > are correctly setup? > > > > Let's take ALSA as a basis : > > - make sure ALSA is selected as plugin in the gnomemeeting preferences > > (I'm not sure you understand what i mean) > > - if the devices list stays at "No device found", then please mail me > > the output of "aplay -l". aplay is an util that comes with alsa-util. > > > > > > Le mer, 31/03/2004 à 15:18 -0500, Evan a écrit : > > > > > well when i ran all the rpms originally and first started the > > > configuration druid for gnomemeeting neither OSS or ALSA resolved any > > > devices.
