Here''s a neat trick for a machine running kerneld: not_root@machine$ /sbin/ifconfig isofs loads ''/lib/modules/(kernel version here)/fs/isofs.o''. /sbin/ifconfig when run as non-root queries a network interface for its configuration. However, if the interface is unknown it also tries to load the module that implements that interface using the name of the interface as

Hello I'm trying to calculate 2d confindence bounds into a scatterplot using the function "kde2d" (package MASS) and a contour plot.

Whenever I change the sound driver from ALSA to OSS in winecfg all of my steam games are muted. Some of the games doesn't even start, some of them start but are totally silent with OSS. I installed a couple of non-steam games into the same wineprefix, interestingly they can use both sound systems. So this issue is applied only to steam games. If I apply the WINEDEBUG=+dsound parameter when

Hello everyone, I'm streaming audio on CentOS 5.8 with no problem, even on a cheap sound card using DarkIce as the input tool. For the input under CentOS5, I use: device = /dev/dsp # OSS DSP soundcard device for the audio input But under CentOS 6.2, there is no such device. I see /dev/snd, and it has: controlC0 hwC0D2 midiC0D1 pcmC0D0p pcmC0D2p pcmC1D0p seq controlC1 hwC1D0

Hey guys, Under Wine v1.1.14, my audio worked perfectly in World of Warcraft using the aoss wrapper. Today I updated to Wine v1.1.15 and to my surprise... No audio under OSS. ALSA works just fine except for the 2 second sound delay on everything (very annoying known issue). I've tried swapping sound cards, increasing my sound buffer size, reverting back to Wine 1.1.14, and reinstalling my

Hello, list! I'm using KDE and oss sound system.

I have a USB soundcard that I have tried to run with Dragon NaturallySpeaking. It doesn't work unless I set winecfg to oss instead of alsa. Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong? How do I get alsa over USB? Thanks, Susan Cragin

Hello-- How do I twiddle the sound drivers? I'm not that experienced with kernel twiddling and driver loading. I have Redhat 9. My previous attempts to play with the kernel and load extra drivers always ended with a new kernel that wouldn't boot. I know asterisk doesn't like to play with sound interfaces that aren't full duplex. So, when I built the system, I saw the MSI

Hi I had have trouble to get sound working under freebsd 8.1 amd64 arch.

Hello, I am working on a project for a client of mine, that involves streaming an incoming phone call. I have a lot of experience with Linux, but something that I have never attempted is using sound under Linux, as all my machines have been servers. Here is the plan, is it doable? The client (a minor league baseball team) calls in to a iconnecthere.com phone number, and Asterisk answers (this

The subject says it all. After digging through latency and other issues with all kinds of linux softphones, I've found that only * works alright for me as a VoIP client. Problem now is that, unlike other apps, chan_oss resp. chan_alsa grab the card once and won't release it until shutdown, while other clients are friendly enough to grab the card only on calls. So, before getting lost in

In May I sent out a draft security vulnerability process. Mostly it seems to have met with approval or at least acquiescence. We received some comments and based on that I have prepared a new final draft. The changes ought not to be controversial. Please send any final comments by the 28th of July (14 days from now). Unless there are objections, we will regard the process as formally in force
