esd auto-start with Gnome?
I have a Gnome desktop set up and working great. I used the packages in
unstable, not the Ximian/Helixcode stuff. But I am having trouble with
esd, the esound daemon.
esd isn't automatically starting up. I went to the Gnome Control Panel,
and under Sound I checked the checkbox to automatically start up sound.
But it isn't working.
If I go to a shell prompt and type "esd&" I get the four cheerful tones
and esound works fine. I can play music with Xmms, etc. So this is
purely a config issue: some startup file needs to be tweaked.
If you have a Gnome system with esound working, could you please check
and see where esd gets started up and let me know?
Thanks.
