Hi,

I suggest you to see the code in music based activities, they all cut 
the background music and set it back when they close.

Sure, again they are many examples of activities doing this, look at the 
'explore' one for example.

> - I reinstall my Linux to a Debian. The installation of GC was much more easier than CentOS-like. The dependencies are resolved quickly with the "apt-get build-dep gcompris" command. Before, you have to set up the source repository, adding for example "deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian testing main contrib non-free" in the /etc/apt/sources.list (testing is distro), and do a "apt-get update" command to update the apt cache. I used git to retrieve the code, with the depth=1 option. Bruno recently released a patch. How can I get it using a git without downloading the whole repository (ie maintaining the depth to 1)
I don't think you need to add the source repository, what was missing in 
your case?

For git, you just have to perform a 'git pull' to get the latest changes.
