I don't agree. 1/ Either the fix is needed, so it's embedded in main source without #ifdef. If it's needed on someone machine, and it's not compiled in, it won't be usefull at all (think rpm distribution). Fixing bug from place A (Alsa driver) in place B (wine sound driver) seems ackward to me. Place A needs to be fixed. This sounds a too M$ approach to me. 2/ or it's not needed. So we don't need to add it. Do you know any Linux sound app doing the same at /dev/dsp opening ? if not I'd be tempted to say it's option 2/ Anyway, if it's *REALLY* needed, then we should do it in all cases (or add a registry key entry) A+ -- --------------- Eric Pouech (http://perso.wanadoo.fr/eric.pouech/) "The future will be better tomorrow", Vice President Dan Quayle
