Multimedia :: Sound in DSL 6



ok so how do you run toram?
I already have damnsmall installed

Hmm.. I never thought to run Damnsmall from "toram" after already installing it to hard drive.

Usually, you type in 'knoppix toram' at the Boot: prompt when you are running from livecd but I have no idea if it is even possible when you are booting from a hard disk.

A fully hd-install DSL system has no compressed filesystem sitting around to load into memory so I doubt that it would work.

A "frugal install" or a "poor man's install" should still work with the toram option.

Testing DSL 0.6.3, and find that the Download Low Bandwidth Mp3 Streams is not getting anything. No sound. That did work in DSL 0.6.2 for me on this computer. Only thing I can think of to do is get the /opt/.xmms_streams_grab.sh lowbandwidth script from 0.6.2 and run that. I just tried that, and I get the same result. Anyone else have problems with this?

Rapid have you checked the XMMS/preferences option/ MPG123 /configure/streaming and see that shoutcast & icecast are enabled.
Worked for me.

ps Should you be quoting Djugashvili  :)
