If you want to disable the patch and use OSS, set ALSA=no in the environment (probably only useful if you use OSSv4). +When using ALSA on a stock Slack 14.2 system, the audio will be routed +to pulseaudio, but pulseaudio doesn't get automatically started by +koules. This shouldn't be an issue for KDE or XFCE users (since they +start a persistent pulseaudio daemon at startup), but if you run a window +manager like WindowMaker or FVWM2, you might have to start pulseaudio +manually (or, from your .xinitrc). + If you have Tcl/Tk installed, and you're running KDE, you'll get a nice GUI launcher dialog when you run Koules from the K menu. If you're not running KDE, try running "koules-launcher". -- cgit v1.2.3
