[GnomeMeeting-list] alsa not recognized

[Tamas K Papp <tpapp Princeton EDU>]

Hi,

gnomemeeting does not appear to recognize that the sound driver is
alsa, in the preferences tab, alsa is not even offered, only OSS and
Quicknet.  Nevertheless, alsa is working properly on the computer with
other prohrams, eg mpg321 -o alsa file.mp3 works, alsamixergui,
alsactl works, etc.

% uname -a
Linux tpapp.student.princeton.edu 2.6.12.5 #1 Sun Aug 28 13:22:22 CEST 2005 ppc GNU/Linux
% dpkg -l alsa-base alsa-utils gnomemeeting
