Adding sound to Iceweasel

Iceweasel problem with youtube sound

I'm using debian squeeze and like it. Unfortunately Iceweasel browser does not have sound support for flash. I've checked installed packages using next command:

debian:/etc/iceweasel# aptitude search flash

p flashbake - automated snapshots with git

v flashblock -

p flashgot - transitional dummy package

i flashplugin-nonfree - Adobe Flash Player — втулок переглядача

i flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound - Adobe Flash Player platform support library for Esoun

p flashrom - Identify, read, write, erase, and verify BIOS/ROM/fla

p flashybrid - automates use of a flash disk as the root filesystem

v iceape-flashgot -

v icedove-flashgot -

v iceweasel-flashblock -

v iceweasel-flashgot -

p m16c-flash - Flash programmer for Renesas M16C and R8C microcontro

p python-webflash - Portable flash messages for Python WSGI applications

p tvflash - Mellanox firmware update utility

p vrflash - tool to flash kernels and romdisks to Agenda VR

p xul-ext-flashblock - mozilla extension to block Adobe Flash content

p xul-ext-flashgot - Turns every supported download manager into a downloa

v xulrunner-flashgot -

flashplugin is installed. It's OK. After this I've checked iceweasel config file:

cd /etc/iceweasel/

debian:/etc/iceweasel# ls

iceweaselrc pref profile

debian:/etc/iceweasel# vim iceweaselrc

and change value of ICEWEASEL_DSP from 'none' to 'auto'

# which /dev/dsp wrapper to use

ICEWEASEL_DSP="auto"

After this I restarted browser and got a sound.

Small script for one of the plarium game

few notes about google games. Goggle informed that access to the all games be closed after June, 30. I played "Pirates: Tides of fortune" and decided to limit my game time using small script. Detail is below. Some history First internet games were updated network games only. 15 years ago internet connection requires a lot of money and nobody had a problem with lagging of the other players. Usually games uses personal communication protocol. Warbirds, Aces High and Eve online use this way. Next part use a browser and trivial HTTP protocol. One of the popular game in this area is travian . Travian player uses browser and every browser (PC, cell phone, tablet) can be used for playing. Of course, popularity of the game is related to graphics. Trivial HTTP does not have good power in this and other technology is used for this side. One of them is Flash . Unfortunately flash requires a lot of CPU : "Pirates" was near to froze at my old celeron with ...
