attached are a set of patches for audiofile, esound (in PPC DR1.0), and x11amp-0.9_beta1.1-1 to fix the endian problems in sound. I am running kernel 2.2.9 on a pbG3 300. If you try to play mp3s and only get static, these should fix that. they can be added into the .spec file to build an RPM no problem. If anyone hasn't had this problem, i don't know why mine it acting odd. Some of the patches are brute force, so there are better solutions out there. Mostly quick late nite fixes so i can play mp3s. But they work for me, so enjoy. Any feedback would be cool.
The audiofile in GNOME CVS is supposed to have a lot of endianness fixes already - you may want to try it. (Not sure how binary compatible it is with 0.1.6 though). Anyways, my main point is that you really need to get these patches to the original authors of the respective packages so that they can be integrated. The audiofile author is michael@68k.org. The esound author is ericmit@ix.netcom.com (that e-mail address reportedly no longer works though - perhaps try getting things through raster@redhat.com instead). -- Elliot "We're sorry, we didn't know it was supposed to be invisible." - Sign carried outside US embassy.
