If it's because sometimes alsa plugin is broken then I can ask for OSS drivers because sometimes alsa drivers does not work. So, except when alsa plugin is broken, when do we need the OSS plugin ? Is Fedora supporting OSS ? Does not seem because there is no OSS mixer (except the current gnome-volume-control). http://fedora.redhat.com/about/objectives.html Non-Objectives of Fedora Core: - Being a dumping ground for unmaintained or poorly designed software. Backward compatibility is a good thing. This is already done with OSS emulation. I perfectly understand that gstreamer support OSS plugin (Fedora is not the only target of gstreamer). I don't understand why Fedora support an unneeded OSS plugin that encumber mixer using gstreamer. Just curious. Don't pay too attention about this, I don't use gnome-volume-control nor mixer-applet :-)
