HTML fix-up.
Mentioned [Alt]+[S] for sound enable/disable at runtime. Broke up "sound doesn't work" answers some.

<h2>Audio Problems</h2>

<ul>

<li><em>There's no sound!</em>
|
||||
<p>First, check the obvious:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Are you certain you're using the computer with the sound card?
|
||||
<li>Are your speakers connected and turned on?
|
||||
<li>Is the volume turned up on your speakers?
|
||||
<li>Is the volume turned up in your Operating System's "mixer?"
|
||||
<li>Are any other programs running that use sound? (They may be
|
||||
'blocking' Tux Paint)
|
||||
<li>(Unix/Linux) Are you using a sound system, such as aRts, ESD or
|
||||
GStreamer? If so, try setting the "SDL_AUDIODRIVER" environment variable
|
||||
before running Tux Paint (e.g., "export SDL_AUDIODRIVER=arts").
|
||||
Or, run Tux Paint through the system's rerouter (e.g.,
|
||||
run "artsdsp tuxpaint" or "esddsp tuxpaint", instead of
|
||||
simply "tuxpaint").

|

<li>(Unix/Linux) Are you using a sound system, such as aRts, ESD or
|

GStreamer? If so, try setting the "SDL_AUDIODRIVER" environment variable
|
||||
before running Tux Paint (e.g., "export SDL_AUDIODRIVER=arts").
|
||||
Or, run Tux Paint through the system's rerouter (e.g.,

run "artsdsp tuxpaint" or "esddsp tuxpaint", instead of
|
||||
simply "tuxpaint").
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><em>Is sound disabled in Tux Paint?</em>
|
||||
<p>If sound seems to work otherwise (and you're sure no other program is
|
||||
"blocking" the sound device), then Tux Paint may be running with
|
||||
a "no sound" option.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Make sure you're not running Tux Paint with the
|
||||
"<code>--nosound</code>" option as a command-line argument.
|
||||
(See the <a href="OPTIONS.html">OPTIONS</a> documentation for details.)</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If it's not, then check the configuration file
|
||||
("/etc/tuxpaint/tuxpaint.conf" and "~/.tuxpaintrc" under Linux and
|
||||
Unix, and "tuxpaint.cfg" under Windows) for a line reading:
|
||||
"<code>nosound=yes</code>".</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Either remove that line, or simply run Tux Paint with the
|
||||
command-line argument: "<code>--sound</code>", which will override
|
||||
the configuration file's setting.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Alternatively, you can use Tux Paint Config. to change
|
||||
the configuration file. Make sure "Enable Sound Effects" (under
|
||||
"Video & Sound") is checked, then click "Apply".</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><em>Were sounds temporarily disabled?</em>
|
||||
<p>Even if sounds are enabled in Tux Paint, it is possible to
|
||||
disable and re-enable them temporarily using the
|
||||
<b>[Alt]</b> + <b>[S]</b> key sequence. Try pressing those
|
||||
keys to see if sounds begin working again.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><em>Was Tux Paint built without sound support?</em>
|
||||
<p>Tux Paint may have been compiled with sound support disabled.
|
||||
To test whether sound support was enabled when Tux Paint was
|
||||
compiled, run Tux Paint from a command line, like so:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote><p><code>
|
||||
tuxpaint --version
|
||||
</code></p></blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If, amongst the other information, you see "Sound disabled", then the
|
||||
version of Tux Paint you're running has sound disabled. Recompile
|
||||
Tux Paint, and be sure NOT to build the "nosound" target.
|
||||
(i.e., don't run "<code>make nosound</code>") Be sure the SDL_mixer
|
||||
library and its development headers are available!</p>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If sound seems to work otherwise (and you're sure no other program is
|
||||
"blocking" the sound device), then Tux Paint is either running with
|
||||
a "no sound" option or was compiled with sound support disabled entirely.</p>
|
||||
<li><em>Tux Paint makes too much noise! Can I turn them off?</em>
|
||||
<p>Yes, there are a number of ways to disable sounds in Tux Paint:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>To test whether sound support was enabled when Tux Paint was
|
||||
compiled, run Tux Paint from a command line, like so:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Press <b>[Alt]</b> + <b>[S]</b> while in Tux Paint to
|
||||
temporarily disable sounds. (Press that key sequence again to re-enable
|
||||
sounds.)
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote><p><code>
|
||||
tuxpaint --version
|
||||
</code></p></blockquote>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If, amongst the other information, you see "Sound disabled", then the
|
||||
version of Tux Paint you're running has sound disabled. Recompile
|
||||
Tux Paint, and be sure NOT to build the "nosound" target.
|
||||
(i.e., don't run "make nosound") Be sure the SDL_mixer library and
|
||||
its development headers are available!</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If Tux Paint wasn't build without sound support, make sure you're
|
||||
not running Tux Paint with the "--nosound" option as a command-line
|
||||
argument.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>If it's not, then check the configuration file ("~/.tuxpaintrc" under
|
||||
Linux and Unix, and "tuxpaint.cfg" under Windows) for a line reading:
|
||||
"nosound=yes".</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Either remove that line, or simply run Tux Paint with the
|
||||
command-line argument: "--sound", which will override the configuration
|
||||
file's setting.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Or use Tux Paint Config. and make sure
|
||||
"Enable Sound Effects" (under "Video & Sound") is checked.</p>
|
||||
<li>Run Tux Paint with the "no sound" option:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Use Tux Paint Config to uncheck the "Enable Sound Effects"
|
||||
option (under "Video & Sound").
|
||||
<li>Edit Tux Paint's configuration file (see
|
||||
<a href="OPTIONS.html">OPTIONS</a> for details) and add a line
|
||||
containing "<code>nosound=yes</code>".
|
||||
<li>Run "<code>tuxpaint --nosound</code>" from the command line or
|
||||
shortcut or desktop icon.
|
||||
<li>Recompile Tux Paint with sound support disabled.
|
||||
(See above and <a href="../INSTALL.txt">INSTALL.txt</a>.)
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><em>The sound effects sound strange</em>
|
||||
<p>This could have to do with how SDL and SDL_mixer were initialized.
