RE: mp3's on SPARC LX - Debian 2.2...

["Mike Hebel" <druaga@pmail.net>]

Unfortunately I'm sure gmix will not work for me - I'm running "headless".

As for the compiling issue - that explains it.  One of the packages that had
not been finished by dselect was the task-debian-devel and I'm pretty sure
that I didn't have dpkg-dev selected.  Makes sense.

The CD-player thing is a kind of a pain.  I've never known a pre-ultra SPARC
that had an internal CD connection to work properly.  You almost always see
them like mine with small patch cords running from the front of the box to
the back.  I may be wrong on this one but I'm pretty sure I'm not.

I'm using gmix from the gnome-media package. Unfortunatelly the cd
player does not work properly. I cannot get audio from the cd to the
aduio chip although there's a connection between the cdreader and the
mainboard.

PS.
To compile the deb source you need the debian package management
tools.
e.g. dpkg-dev, task-debian-devel

	Thanks again for the file - it installed fine with dpkg and works exactly
as
	expected!

	Just a curiosity question - did you have any problems compiling it on your
	system?  (I had problems getting it compiled but that may have been related
	to the other problem I found - not all the packages from dselect were
	installed and configured. Doh!)

	Does anyone out there have mixerctl ported to Debian?  I looked for it on
	the searchable package database on www.debian.org and on ftp.us.debian.org
	but didn't see it anywhere.

	I tried using aumix instead but it doesn't seem to want to work.  (Either
	outputs a bunch of blank lines and an error message or it does things like
	not listing the settings for anything on any channel.  I think it might not
	work properly with the DBRI mixer but that's just my Debian newbie guess.)

	Any ideas?

	Thanks again for the help!

	Sincerely,

	Mike Hebel

	Here's the deb file. I included as an attachment. I complied it on my
	Ultra 5/10.
