Thanks Clemens, I was able to make aplay to play sound on FreeBSD installation. need to install alsa-lib-1.0.15-1.fc8.i386.rpm (minor library upgrade to match oss-plugin) alsa-plugins-oss-1.0.15-3.fc8.1.i386.rpm alsa-utils-1.0.15-1.fc8.i386.rpm (for aplay) and then provide default pcm configuration # cat /compat/linux/etc/asound.conf pcm.!default "oss" pcm.oss { type oss device /dev/dsp } # After that some simple wav's can be played: $ /compat/linux/usr/bin/aplay /usr/local/share/apps/sim/sounds/message.wav Playing WAVE '/usr/local/share/apps/sim/sounds/message.wav' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 22050 Hz, Mono $ Unfortunately flash9 plug-in is still silent, but it not shows more any error messages. Probably it is due to: --- README-pcm-oss --- ... The function supported by this plugin is limited. For example, you cannot use dmix together with this plugin. Don't expect too much :) ... Probably it worth to try play sound with flash9 player through this plug-in on plain Linux. > Bye, > Alexander. -- Vladimir B. Grebenschikov vova@fbsd.ru
