Alas, no change. Still some squeaks from the speaker followed by a hanging process:
Well, my recent ossaudiodev changes wouldn't have changed anything if ossaudiodev is completely hosed. However, I've finally gotten around to writing my pure C OSS test program. It's checked in under sandbox/audiotest. Please give it a try!
cd nondist/sandbox cvs up -dP cd audiotest make && ./audiotest
If *that* doesn't give sensible results, then we can't blame ossaudiodev for the fact that it doesn't work on your box.
That gives sensible results. The mystery continues... But I wonder if there's a difference between my home and my work box? The ossaudiodev test runs fine on my home box now, but it hung on my work box last week; I seem to recall that it failed on my home box before your last fix to the C module. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
