i think this is not a very good idea. if you want to wrap OpenAL around ALSA, then wrap it around alsa-lib. don't go messing with the kernel API, that just doesn't make any sense. but more importantly, i don't see how any of what you are proposing aids the use of the aureal vortex 3d processor. a device driver isn't a library, its code that writes data to registers and handles interrupts. nothing about OpenAL deals with that side of things. --p ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
