Hi all,
We had to rename all the drivers and many other files to have unique
names. For example the sblive driver is now called oss_sblive. In
addition many files under kernel/framework have been renamed to have
oss_ prefix. The work is still in progress because we have not decided
how to name some of the drivers. However the renamed version is now in
the hg server. make sure you pull the latest changes if you are making
modifications to the drivers.
This change will have some unwanted side effects. For example the device
file (directory) names under /dev/oss/ will change which may cause some
compatibility problems. In addition the names of the driver modules will
change. For this reason it's necessary to uninstall previous version of
OSS before installing the latest version (otherwise the old driver
modules will be left in the system). At least it's necessary to run
soundoff, ossdetect, soundon and ossdevlinks -r after installing the new
version.
I note that following these changes ossdetect does not add vmix (now
oss_vmix) to /usr/lib/oss/etc/installed_drivers (irrespective of the -V
option).
The attached patch corrects this for Linux 2.6 builds.
I haven't tested other architectures.
regards,
Clive
