[newbie] oss emulation through alsa
I have Mandrake 9.1, and would like to run OSS emulation through ALSA. The reason for this is that when I try to run games with wine, it only works with OSS. The problem with that is, Shockwave Flash doesn't work at all on the internet. I would like both of these to work at the same time, and I thought that this would do the trick. Here is my modules.conf. I have and intel 810 based onboard sound card. probeall scsi_hostadapter usb-storage ide-scsi probeall usb-interface usb-ohci alias eth0 sis900 above snd-intel8x0 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0 alias /dev/nvidia* nvidia Thanks a lot.

[newbie] OSS install help
Dear All, I have been the one trying to get sound working with ALSA and it just has been no go, so now I am trying to get my commercial OSS working. I have LM9. OSS installs fine but whenever I try the soundtest it starts up for a few seconds and I hear it but then abrubtly stops and hangs there doing nothing till I kill it. After that if I try to run soundoff I get device busy errors. I then go to webmin and see that the processses are stuck, so I kill them. Then I am able to start the test again and the same thing happens over and over. Do I need to get rid of alsa completely to get OSS working right? If I do, how do I do that? I read somewhere that one has to recompile their kernel without sound support in order to get OSS working. Is this true? Thanks for any help.

Sincerely, Marcia We share the same via 8233 sound chip and AC97 codec, I have M9.0 on and still have alsa with aRts enabled with the one exception of xcdroast where I have to disable aRts in order to have sound in xcdroast, but then have to reenable aRts to have system and most other things I'm not saying you need the same, just that this is my experience.

I have just successfully installed the OSS Drivers for the Turtle Beach Montego cheers I tried it out with an AVI movie and some Mp3z. These both work great but when I play a wave file the audio is choppy, high-pitched, and distorted. Ideas?

Last time I checked it out (few weeks ago), it was beta and they charged a small fee for it to keep it working past the (20 minute?) cutoff code. I'll be trying it in a few more weeks, hope it is finalized by then. best wishes, richard myers
