It allows you to do advanced operations on your sound data as it passes between your application and your hardware. Things like transferring the audio to a different machine, changing the sample format or channel count and mixing several sounds into one are easily achieved using a sound server. &lfs70_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &pulseaudio-md5sum; Download size: &pulseaudio-size; Estimated disk space required: &pulseaudio-buildsize; Estimated build time: &pulseaudio-time; PulseAudio Dependencies Required , , and Recommended Optional , , BlueZ, , , , , JACK, Secret Rabbit Code (a.k.a. libsamplerate), LIRC, , tdb, Valgrind, and User Notes: Installation of PulseAudio Install PulseAudio by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --libexecdir=/usr/lib/pulseaudio \ --with-module-dir=/usr/lib/pulseaudio/modules \ --with-udev-rules-dir=/etc/udev/rules.d && make To test the results, issue: make check.
