Description

Running it with LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 set should work. This is an issue with NPTL, as I recall. Adding LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 before running rhythmbox now starts playing the song (i.e the slider bar and time playing now moves), but sound still fails to come out. I have enabled esd and turned up the volume for psm in gnome-volume-control. If I open the same song with xmms, it plays perfectly. This is an ogg format song encoded to 320 kb/s I get sound out on my box when I pick up the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 variable. If this can't be fixed upstream in time for release, an easy hack workaround for the gnome panel was to replace rhythmbox with a shell script that sets the variable before running it. (An obvious hack, but I thought it was better to mention it than not). *** Bug 81216 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** rhythmbox was removed from Rawhide recently right? Yes, but we'd still like it to work. ;) Try with glibc 2.3.2-27.9. I think I remember there were some issues with condvars in this package. This glibc version has a condvar implementation which should work fine. Rythmbox has been forked twice since this bug, and gstreamer has been reved a number of versions. We also don't ship it. Closing. While gstreamer has revved, it's not yet in Severn or Rawhide. FWIW, I added an RFE in Bug #101342 for gstreamer 0.6.2 just now. |
