I'm still on the older Firefox but I get this here: |
66 |
|
67 |
|
68 |
root@fireball / # emerge -av apulse |
69 |
|
70 |
These are the packages that would be merged, in order: |
71 |
|
72 |
Calculating dependencies... done! |

If you are already on the newer Firefox, which I guess you are, then |
82 |
that may be what makes it block things. So, I tried this: |
83 |
|
84 |
|
85 |
root@fireball / # emerge -av apulse firefox |
86 |
|
87 |
These are the packages that would be merged, in order: |

For some reason, it likes the idea. So, differences between us. I |
111 |
notice you are on a newer version of alsa than I am. Here's mine: |
112 |
|
113 |
|
114 |
[IP-] [ ] media-libs/alsa-lib-1.1.2:0 |
115 |
[IP-] [ ] media-sound/alsa-utils-1.1.2:0.9 |
116 |
|
117 |
|
118 |
Could it be that it doesn't like the newer version of alsa, yet at |
119 |
least? Possible. |
120 |
|
121 |
Does that help any? Could you drop to that lower version of alsa and |
122 |
see if it helps or is there a needed fix for you in that newer version? |
123 |

P. S. Keep in mind, I'd like to get this to work here too later on. ;-) |
