I'm not sure I can be of much help as sound systems "just work" for me. Anyway, I don't enable any OSS stuff in my kernel config. I use straight ALSA. Then I simply install ALSA-libs and ALSA-utils. After those are installed, use alsa-mixer to to turn up the volumes on all the channels (up arrow), and use the 'm' key to unmute them (use the left and right arrow keys to navigate to the different channels). Next ensure the proper users are assigned to the 'audio' group in /etc/group. Then use the speaker-test program to test output. It should "just work". Then perhaps use the aplay program to play a .wav file. It should "just work". If those things work, you really shouldn't have any issues with any other programs trying to access the sound system. I cannot speak for OSS tools, as I don't use them. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 11:12:04 up 135 days, 10:45, 3 users, load average: 2.98, 2.39, 1.46 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
