Re: noise under linux speak freely (fwd)

Anyone using USB headsets with speakfreely under Linux? I'm having trouble getting it to work. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 9 Jul 2002 10:27:20 +0200 (MET DST) From: Ivan Popov <pin(a)math.chalmers.se> To: Chris Jensen <lamda(a)get2net.dk> Cc: speak-freely(a)fourmilab.ch Subject: Re: noise under linux speak freely On Mon, 8 Jul 2002, Chris Jensen wrote: > Hm!

Actually I am at the state where I ask: can SF really work under Linux! Of > cause , but sometimes more tricky than others ;) SpeakFreely works "itself" very good. It is its interaction with the drivers that is far from perfect. Unfortunately John is apparently busy with other things and has no time for improving the program. Neither me (who complained regularly and who read the source) have enough time to contribute to SF. Speak Freely for Unix needs a rewrite of logic when it outputs sound. Your problems may be caused by very different matters, but anyway if you feel motivated - figure out from the source what is supposed to happen and then you may find why it breaks for you. The current sound output design is old and made in different circumstances than Linux computers are now. Hope somebody will redo it. Native ALSA support may help in case OSS does not provide the necessary hooks...

So much for "we won't > create if we aren't paid" - and, again, I'm not talking Britney Spears or > Picasso here, I'm talking beauty. > > Mark > True, but I'll bet almost anything that none of the plugins were written by corporations expecting to get a return on their investment. Some forms of creation require little in the way of up-front investment. Others do. Consider movies. While some of the people involved get to do creative work that they love, many don't, and they all have to make a living somehow. Would the Key Grip, the Focus Puller, or the Greensmen be willing to do their work for the sheer creativity of it all? I don't think so. The principle shooting for the LOTR trilogy took over 18 months, in New Zealand. Do you think they did it (just) for love? Art forms which require large prior investments need some form of remuneration beyond egoboo. Otherwise, they just won't happen. Peter Trei
