I'm not the right person to answer this unfortunately. You probably have to wait for Jaroslav Kysela's and Takashi Iwai's comments. They are the primary (active :)) ALSA developers and have written the the OSS layer. > If you have no time to look into it, then > can you at least tell me if it is possible > to run the alsa modules in usermode somehow, > so I can debug them with gdb? One thing to try is the alsa-oss package. This is an alternative (user-space) implementation of the OSS emulation layer. It relies on the LD_PRELOAD mechanism. You can test it with: LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libaoss.so.0.0.0 ./a.out ... where "a.out" is your test program. You should be able to run ViaVoice also this way. You can get the alsa-oss package from ALSA CVS or from: LD_PRELOAD=~/src/alsa-cvs/alsa-oss/.libs/libaoss.so.0.0.0 ./a.out > I am afraid I have no experience with kernel > (model) debugging. Can you give me a pointer > to where I read up on debugging this? Adding printk()'s to the alsa-driver code, recompiling and reloading the modules is the best (well, IMHO) way to start. The ALSA kernel-space OSS emulation code is in 'alsa-driver/acore/oss/*'. -- http://www.eca.cx Audio software for Linux! ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing & more.
