In the testsuite directory, I run "make check", and I see these errors

On Solaris, we support OSS and SunAudio.  It seems bad that the testsuite only works with ALSA.  If I change the alsasrc reference to osssrc, it still doesn't work with these errors:

AttributeError: '__main__.GstOssSrc' object has no attribute 'probe_get_properties'
AttributeError: '__main__.GstOssSrc' object has no attribute 'probe_get_property'
AttributeError: '__main__.GstOssSrc' object has no attribute 'probe_get_values_name'

I see similar errors if I try changing it to sunaudiosrc.

I also notice ALSA is hardcoded into the GStreamer Pipeline tester in examples/pipeline-tester.  Note test "Sound capture via ALSA" and "Reencode Vorbis to mulaw, play via ALSA", and "Streaming Ogg/Theora+Vorbis playback, tee to disk.  Shouldn't these tests check whatever sink & source you have defined on the system and use those?  These tests seem to work okay if I hardcode them to use osssrc and osssink rather than the ALSA ones.

I also see a few problems running pipeline-tester:

The "Software scaling" test complains "Could not create pipeline.  could not link videoscale1 to ximagesink3.  Not sure why this is failing.

The "Reencode Vorbis to mulaw, play via alsa" does not work if you run the /usr/share/gst-python/0.10/examples/pipeline-tester (rather than running the version in the source tree), complaining it can't find the file cooldance.ogg
Considering the file is only 74K (only twice as large as the remuxer.py example), perhaps installing this ogg file to the examples directory would be 
nice.

The "Streaming Ogg/Theora+Vorbis playback, tee to disk" test fails if you run it from a directory where you don't have write permissions, like if you cd to /usr/share/gst-python/0.10/examples, and run pipeline-tester.  Might be nice if the test did a change-directory into the /tmp directory or something to do this test.

The V4L and DV tests only work if you have these plugins installed, which are not present currently on Solaris.  Might be nice to disable these choices if the plugins are not present.

Whenever some tests fail (such as the "Streaming Ogg/Theora+Vorbis playback, tee to disk" failure mentioned above), the Stop button doesn't change to a Play 
button.  This is annoying since it means you have to stop and restart the test 
program to run any further tests.
