1 Hi,
2
3 I can't get xmms/alsaplayer to work on ly ibook (G3, 700Mhz, 2001 late
4 ed) running kernel 2.6.7-gentoo-r14 .
5 I've tested mp3 playing and it does not work (mpg321 is
6 ok however).
7
8 Any hint about what I'm missing ?
9
10 xmms plays mp3 too fast
11 alsaplayer just makes strange noise (like no channel on TV)
12
13 xmms when reading a stream returns :
14 ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:549:(snd_pcm_hw_start) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_START failed: Broken pipe
15 alsa_free(): snd_pcm_start() failed: Broken pipe
16
17 Someone mentioned using esd instead.
18
19 How did you get it working ?
20
21 My settings ae :
22
23 USE="dvd cdr alsa cups gnome fbcon -pda X vim-with-x ncurses radeon
24 directfb quicktime mpeg avi flash mozsvg moznoirc moznomail samba
25 maildir imap milter mbox mailwrapper -ipv6 gtk2 perl berkdb threads tcpd
26 mailbox imap opengl oggvorbisi nls"
27
28 Kernel related to sound settings :
29 CONFIG_SOUND_GAMEPORT=y
30 CONFIG_SOUND=y
31 CONFIG_DMASOUND_PMAC=m
32 CONFIG_DMASOUND=m
33 CONFIG_SND=m

55 PS : I had a look at the FAQ and http://ppcconfdb.sourceforge.net/
56 The FAQ mentions dmasound_pmac but I can't load it when alsa
57 is activated :
58 modprobe dmasound_pmac
59 FATAL: Error inserting dmasound_pmac
60 (/lib/modules/2.6.7-gentoo-r14/kernel/sound/oss/dmasound/dmasound_pmac.ko):
61 No such device
62 And after a /etc/init.d/alsasound stop it does not work either.
