Is there anything similar for Fedora? Would I have this problem if I
used the RPM?
AFAIK fedora does not ship alsa-oss since fc4. I have the same issue
though.
Mmmh... that (Firefox being unable to play sounds if other app is
accessing /dev/something) is very annoying. Can someone confirm this is
really due to the lack of some package (eg. alsa-oss) or to Firefox
being misconfigured on Fedora? I'd really like to solve this issue,
because, after all, if Ubuntu folks managed to solve it, I can't see
why we wouldn't be able to do it on Fedora as well.
as far as I understand, this is not firefox's issue, but macromedia
flash plugin does not support alsa output only oss.
There is a thread in archives of this mail list where fedora guys are
explaining why the refuse to support alsa-oss. I use to ask this
question concerning skype, but it is not a problem for me anymore
because skype 1.3 can do alsa, and more than that - I'm not using skype
anymore :)
