Quote:In Linux Mint (with Mate) I stripped out PulseAudio. You can't do this with Cinnamon or the desktop UI won't launch. Then I tried both the ATI proprietary catalyst 14.4 and 14.6 beta drivers. They both will bitstream HD Audio, but they do not accelerate graphics with VDPAU.
How is HDaudio possible with catalyst+pulse? Some months ago it was said, that pulse (nor catalyst) does not support HDaudio formats at least in combination with the OSS drivers. Thus I had to disable pulse in xbmc.
Is this still valid? Was pulse fixed for HDaudio?
Or just in combo with catlyst?
