import stereo sound from blue socket
|
| |
The blue socket on e.g. a sound card or motherboard is alleged to be
line input.
I can set up a stereo device to send sound to this socket.
How do I coax Slack 14 to input this sound? Later on I can use some

Slackware recognize that I have an audio file to send and store?... more »

switch form Gentoo
|
| |
I enjoy Gentoo but want os for a weaker machine (netbook etc.) which
makes thus wholesome compilation somewhat cumbersome...
Please, address the 2 questions:
1.) Is there any problem to rely routinely upon self-compiled
