Strange, I have the toshiba kernel module loaded at boot time and when I start ALSA by hand I get mostly non-functional sound. > The other option is to unload alsa and load the ymfpci module (kernel/oss) > and there is sound (guaranteed every time). xine playback is better with ALSA (synchronization) and OSS is becoming obsolete in 2.6 kernels... :) > My intention was to compare the low level code of the kernel oss driver > with the alsa driver and see what they do differently. > My initial guess is that the initialisation is done slightly > differently... I used to use ALSA 0.5 series without a glitch years ago on RH6.2-7.2 (maybe even 7.3, until OSS ymfpci came out). My intention is to compare 0.5 series inits with current version, since I suspect they should be easier to compare than OSS and ALSA... :) > Alas, I haven't had the chance to do so... (yet). Can't guess when I'll have a chance myself, but don't loosing faith. ;) Cheers, Mihai ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
