Linux doesn't support AIM sound ?

AIM sound is not working on my Linux machine.
Does anyone knows the reason ? What should I do to make it work ?

Check your volume levels and make sure that PCM and Front are not muted.

Otherwise,
You have to install codecs
Open Terminal/Konsole and execute this code:

Code:

---

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gstreamer-plugin-ugly

---

VLC players supports most of Media formats.
Code:

Code:

---

sudo aot-get install vlc

---

AIM uses esd library for the sound. Now recently Mandrake and Debian GNU will be released, there is no libesd.so linked to real esd library in /usr/lib directory.
To make sound work, enter the following:

• ln -s libesd.so.0 libesd.so
• ln -s libesddsp.so.0 libesddsp.so
• in /usr/lib directory

Check out the version of AIM. Possibly, it maybe the beta version of AIM which might be not supported by Linux operating system due to incompatibility issues or something else....
