Do you have libasound installed for i386? cause the one that outputs ldd looks like in folder for x86_64

Indeed. Yet the Squeak version does not load either.

I'd say it's pretty strange that the vm-sound-ALSA needs almost nothing... From the code I'd think It'd need to bind against asound [1], as the squeak vm says in

Thanks. When trying to load the ALSA sound, stderr just reports "could not find module vm-sound-ALSA".

Doing an ldd on the vm-sound-ALSA.so included with the Pharo VM, I get:

There doesn't seem to be anything clearly missing.

Doing an ldd on the vm-sound-pulse.so included with the Squeak VM, I get:
������� linux-gate.so.1 =>� (0xf7721000)
������� libpulse-simple.so.0 => not found
������� libc.so.6 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0xf754f000)
������� /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf7722000)

I did try to install the libpulse package (apt-get install libpulse-dev) but that file is still missing.

Weirdly enough, doing an ldd on the vm-sound-null.so included with Pharo, I get:
������� linux-gate.so.1 =>� (0xf774c000)
������� libc.so.6 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0xf757c000)
������� /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf774d000)
which is the exact same thing as for vm-sound-ALSA.so. So, I would imagine that if the one worked than the other would.

Cheers,

Jeff

Hi!

If the modules are not printed, that probably means that they cannot be loaded :). (Bah, I assume that by looking at the vm code that does that [1]).
So, first thing you can do is to see the output of stderr. Second, you can try to do an ldd [2] to the vm-sound-ALSA.so library to check the dependencies and try to get them installed via ap-tget.

Keep us informed :)

Cheers,
Guille

Hmm. Did this get sent or was it filtered? It doesn't seem to be in my inbox for the pharo-dev list.


It arrived��

I'm using Pharo 2.0 on Ubuntu 13.10 and I can't seem to get sound working. Getting sound to work on Linux seems to be a common problem. While I've checked the archive for solutions, none of them work for me. I've investigated a bit and here's what I've found:

Inside of the /usr/lib/pharo-vm directory, I see the following:
vm-sound-ALSA.so
vm-sound-null.so
vm-sound-pulse.so (I added that based on an archive post that this would work)

When I do "pharo -vm-sound-null pharo.image", it works correctly.
When I do "pharo -vm-sound-ALSA pharo.image", it gives me an error that "could not find module vm-sound-ALSA".

When I do "pharo-help", I find that the only sound driver available is "vm-sound-null", though the others are clearly there in the directory. Is there anything I can do to make the VM acknowledge that the other files are there?

Cheers,

Jeff
