Well, I do not have any recent experience on Ubuntu but that all sounds very strange to me. I can't believe those packages conflict, on debian you install a couple packages check a box and bingo! system sounds work. If you've tried all the information on the Perfect Setup and on the Ubuntu bug report sites then I don't know what else to do. The good news is, from what I have read it does seem like some people have been able to get esd-compat in Feisty working properly. I hope your problem gets solved. <div>On 3/25/07, Matteo Zandi <<a href="mailto:matteo.zandi@gmail.com">matteo.zandi@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">On 3/23/07, Paul Jones <<a href="mailto:raptorman18@gmail.com">raptorman18@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > I originally posted this in response to your problem on the debian user > forums. I'm just wondering if you've read it, so I put it here too. I read your post on the forums, but it didn't help. gnome-audio conflicts with gdm and others. This is actually strange, but you have the same sounds in ubuntu-sounds (wich I have installed). I wonder if someone has esd working with pulseaudio and ubuntu, I start to think that it is a problem with packages in ubuntu. Does anyone has esd and pulseaudio working in feisty?
