oss is set up via the modules.conf listed below. /dev/dsp is appropriately linked with appropriate permissions. also, that shouldn't effect xmms via the alsa plugin or aplay. > I thought that the 2.6 kernels no longer use /etc/modules.conf but some > other file. truth is, i simplified a little, i'm using debian so it's actually via modutils. but, in any event, i believe 2.6 still uses modules.conf > Have you tried plugging the output phones into one of the other jacks?
