Re: alut (OpenAL) package request

got the ubuntu 12.10 package and converted. worked fine.

libraries are there and everything.

when i try to use alut in some c++ code, i get the following error when running:

AL lib: oss_open_playback: Could not open /dev/dsp: No such file or directory

/dev/dsp doesnt exist on my machine.

can anyone help?

Thanks a lot Aleksej!

The package is missing alut.h, though.

could you add it?

thanks

Re: alut (OpenAL) package request

thanks a lot.

im encountering errors while using it, though.. my friend has alut-dev installed, too (elementary OS) and his code is working.

when i compile it on my machine and run, i get

AL lib: oss_open_playback: Could not open /dev/dsp: No such file or directory

anything driver-related? I'm a bit stuck here.

Re: alut (OpenAL) package request

Try this (as root):

[c]depmod -av snd_pcm_oss
depmod -av snd_mixer_oss[/c]
Also you can try to convert 'aoss' from some other distro and run '[c]# aoss application-name[/c]'.

Re: alut (OpenAL) package request

What about this?

[c]cd /lib/modules/3.2.53-slitaz/kernel/sound/core/oss/
insmod snd-mixer-oss.ko.xz
insmod snd-pcm-oss.ko.xz[/c]

Re: alut (OpenAL) package request

adding snd-pcm-oss to the modules-loaded-on-startup list did the trick.

thanks!
