Hi, Please forgive me if I've misunderstood anything. But I believe the thread started because Arjun was looking for the oss compatibility /dev/ entries. As James Cameron pointed out, that is solved by loading ALSA's snd-pcm-oss which is loaded by default on most systems. I'm sure everyone participating and volunteering their time on this are trying to make this project more successful. After all, we all want better audio on Linux. So I think it'd be better if we could discuss specific problems and issues rather than making broad characterizations on particular implementations. If you have found bugs or problems or enhancement requests with the overall audio implementation on the OLPC, from apps all the way down to the drivers, please share the trac ticket numbers and initiate discussion around that. I think that'd be a great way to improve things. Thanks, jaya _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
