before speaking of doing this or that, he should rather send us the
information we asked in order to do a real bug report instead of just
insulting us.
and he would be nice to respect the netiquette and to continue to
write about this in the same thread.
idem for microsoft troll he feed his mails with instead of explaining
his problem.
idem for mixing upcased and lowcase words, repeating words ("word
((WORD))"), ...
as for alsa vs oss, most programs rather prefer alsa api over oss
(despite oss still being the defacto standard) especially on the
multimedia area.
as for working driver, i cannot speak until i know which driver he
uses.
but i know one thing: whenever i did a pass on alsa drivers to add new
cards to pcitable, i *ALWAYS* keep the oss driver when he was already
there.
as for the "working driver", i only switched from oss to alsa when
people asked me (because of oss bug, ...).
i saw people reporting alsa working better than oss. i rarely (never?)
see the reverse (i don't count tom's report "don't fix perfectly
working driver" as a bug report but as insults/troll)
but insulting/flaming is always easier than providing the needed
information about the problem.
