I am having lots of problems getting the oss emulation to work in
0.alsa-drivers-5.11. I think it is because I have a tv tunner card.
I have support (bttv) for it compiled into my kernel (2.4.10) and
hope that I don't have to recompile without it. I have searched every
where and only found one person with a similar problem and his
solution does not seem to affect me. I am able to play sound files
with aplay and can even get xmms to work by using a patch to use the
alsa driver. The main problem is that I want esound to work and it
doesn't compile for 0.5.x drivers with alsa support and I can't use
the oss compatibility. Thank you for any and all help.
Pertinent Information follows.
When trying to modprobe snd-pcm-oss i get.
snd: unable to register OSS mixer device 0:0
snd: unable to register OSS PCM device 0:0
cat /proc/asound/sndstat gives.
