Hi, In the forum, I've noticed that much of the problems users have with OSS, relate to making applications output via OSS, not making OSS work. For example see:

If we comment out the #define OPENSSL line from flashsupport.c, than no new dependencies are introduced. Maybe even use the method currently used in soundon for libsalsa to install it. 2) What is the ossupdate program? Is it a reliable way of updating oss? It seems to be still closed source. 3) Inform the user he may need to install oss sound plugins for applications when installation is done. Yours, Yair K. _______________________________________________ oss-devel mailing list oss-devel@mailman.opensound.com http://mailman.opensound.com/mailman/listinfo/oss-devel
