VoxWare v2.90 release notes
|
||
|
|
--------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This version includes some hidden features which
|
||
|
|
are described in the file experimental.txt
|
||
|
|
Some of these features are not enabled by default. Look at
|
||
|
|
experimental.txt for more info.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I just decided to release this version with some
|
||
|
|
incompletely implemented features disabled since
|
||
|
|
there are some new features required by a popular
|
||
|
|
application. In addition there is also support
|
||
|
|
for the GUS MAX and the 16 bit sampling option of GUS.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The MSS/WSS support works now. At least with SG NX Pro 16.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
********* IMPORTANT *****************************************
|
||
|
|
Linux 1.0 or later is required to by this driver version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Don't distribute binaries which use /dev/sequencer and are
|
||
|
|
compiled with the soundcard.h of this version. They will
|
||
|
|
not work with version 2.x of the driver.
|
||
|
|
*************************************************************
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You will need the snd-util-2.5.tar.gz and snd-data-0.1.tar.Z
|
||
|
|
packages to use this driver. They should be in the same
|
||
|
|
ftp site or BBS from where you got this driver. For
|
||
|
|
example at nic.funet.fi:pub/OS/Linux/*.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are looking for the installation instructions, please
|
||
|
|
look at linux/Readme.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Compatibility with the earlier versions
|
||
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This version is backward compatible with the version 2.X. All programs
|
||
|
|
compiled with sys/soundcard.h of v2.X should work without problems.
|
||
|
|
PROGRAMS COMPILED WITH THE sys/soundcard.h OF THIS VERSION WILL NOT
|
||
|
|
WORK WITH v2.X DRIVER. BE CAREFUL WHEN DISTRIBUTING BINARIES COMPILED
|
||
|
|
FOR THIS VERSION.

NOTE! I probably don't answer to Snail mail or FAX messages. Sending answer
|
||
|
|
to each of them is simply too expensive and time consuming. However I
|
||
|
|
try to reply every email message I get (within a week). If you don't
|
||
|
|
get response, please check how your address is written in the message
|

header. I can't answer if I don't have a valid reply address.
