Site News :: 0.6 is ready



Huzzah! Now my soundcard works!

Guess I'll quit diddling with upgrading the kernel, and get to writing up the DSL Remastering Howto.

Soundcard works? Gee, I gotta try it now!
just installed 0.6, installed beautifully and so far I'm pretty happy with it.  one problem so far (unfortunately I wasn't paying enough attention to what I was doing so this won't be real descriptive,) when I first did 'sudo dpkg-restore' I got a message saying something like '/usr/sbin/dpkg-install.sh not found' and then restore would quit, I tried it a couple of more times to make sure it wasn't a one time fluke, then I went in search of dpkg-install.sh and never found it. After a while I decided to try 'sudo dpkg-restore' again and it installed just fine.  This time I was in /sbin when I ran it, the first time I was in /home/damnsmall

Just thought I would drop a note in here about it.


[edit]Oh, just thought of one more thing, when it worked I also had the dsl cd mounted, the first time I didn't, not sure if that would make a difference[/edit]

I'm trying to play my music on my favourite player (mpg123) and whoops...nothing happens, only this error
Code Sample

damnsmall@box # mpg123 /mnt/hda2/music/fun/romale.mp3
No default libao driver available.

ogg123 is doing the same (with ogg files of course)
--------UPDATE-----------
As I read the forum, I see that some people get their sound-cards working for example on Epia M10000.
I thing the bug is in the new (bad configured/unconfigurable) driver.

Ya, it works on my M10k. Haven't tried DSL on my "real" box yet, so I can't help there.

0.5.3.1's audio worked on the big machine (it's a soyo dragon ultra-platinum)(ooh, shiny), but not on the Epia.
