quar1hi guys11:26
quar1i'm trying to get JAVA work with ALSA on a LTSP system11:27
quar1 set up a lab with LTSP and my clients play sounds from mp3s and normal audio11:27
quar1but not from JAVA software11:27
quar1people on #ltsp told me probably JAVA doesn't use ALSA11:27
quar1could it be possible?11:27
persiaWhich sound library were you using in Java?11:29
quar1i didn't modify anything since ubuntu hardy installation11:29
quar1i know clients use esd and server uses alsa11:30
quar1can JVM be instructed to use ALSA?11:36
quar1o other devices by terminal or by conf file?11:37
persiaThe JVM doesn't use a sound engine.  The default implementation of javax.audio was documented to use ALSA since Java 1.5.11:38
persiaOther libraries may behave differently.11:38
quar1so it depends from software internal java code... a bad thing...11:40
persiaWell, it depends on the library.  I'm not familiar enough with enough of the components you are using to suggest alternatives, and this is a development channel rather than a support channel.11:40
quar1ok i know11:41
persiaIf you can identify the library that is misbehaving, and generate a bug, there's a chance it can be fixed.  WIthout information about how the sound is being generated, it's rather hard to know where the problem may lie.11:41
quar1ok i'll search for MALTED source code...11:42
quar1thanx a lot11:42
persiaquar1: Good luck, and feel free to come back and highlight the bug if you can find it.11:42
quar1of course, thank you11:43
quar1here i am11:46
quar1there's a player.java file11:46
quar1with inside: import javax.sound.sampled.*;11:46
quar1and import javax.media.*;11:47
persiaI would have expected that to be ALSA.  Which JRE?11:47
quar1i use sun-java-611:47
persiaRight.  Please do file a bug then.  No idea when it can be fixed, as that package has very limited terms for modification, but at least it will be tracked.11:49
quar1can i open a bug in launchpad?11:49
persiaquar1: Yes, that would be the right place.11:51
persiahttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sun-java6/+filebug11:51
quar1https://bugs.launchpad.net/ltsp/+bug/25566711:56
persiaquar1: Thanks.11:57
persiaIt would likely be better if you could include the information you found from the MALTED source code.11:58
quar1https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sun-java6/+bug/25566811:59
quar1double bug report, i'll track and reply both12:00
persiaDon't worrt about 255668: I'll mark it duplicate12:00
quar1i noticed that now12:02
quar1ok i'll wait12:03
quar1thanks a lot12:03
