Really? I am getting great audio right now with an ALSA enabled esd on
hackkernel-2.4.0-0.33mdk. See my esound-alsa spec file. I essentially
removed the --disable-alsa.

Yeah, I was doing that for a while too. But why should we? Let's use
ALSA natively! It is, afterall, a better sound system than OSS.

But wouldn't you rather support the ALSA driver directly?
