Hi guys!
I'm trying to achieve a new ***working*** audio setup on ubuntu after upgrading. As always, after every upgrade, I have to start again. So I'm wondering if there are people out there who would be willing to share their insights of the process. I have already and unsuccessfully spent a lot of time trying to get a less confusing picture of the beast but the truth is linux audio is still really messy, with a lot of subsystems, oss, alsa, pulseaudio, jack, etc. The problem is I don't know what I should stick to. For a while, it was ok for me to accept the situation, but now I'd really like to be able to fix it. I'd like not to have to switch to xp whenever something doesn't work like it should (actually, I always switch to xp if I want to watch dvd's (with menus!) without something inevitably going wrong, but this is another problem... or is it?)
So, what do you think? All contribution will be welcome!
