Is esound known to be broken on powerpc ?
Is there a better sound daemon that is recommended for powerpc ?
It's known to have caused _me_ endless troubles ;) It's possible that E
is trying to output sound via esound, causing the clicks. Can you try
removing esound and disabling E & gnome sound to see if it helps ? (At
least, we would then know if esound is the culprit).
I tried disabling gnome sound in the gnome control panel and it doesn't
seem to make any difference. I haven't rebooted my machine or restarted
my X server. I'll try that soon. I tried removing esound with "apt-get
remove esound" and for some reason apt wants to *remove everything*.
This seems very wrong to me. What's going on here ????
$ apt-get remove esound
