Note that 4Front OSS is not supported by Sun and is not part
OpenSolaris. As such, you probably want to contact them directly.
I'd actualy recommend you install OpenSolaris -- recent builds (anything
115 or later) have an OSS compliant audio subsystem built-in, and fully
integrated into the operating system.
