That's not a good enough explanation, sorry. The ALSA guys have spoken in the past about maybe having the OSS emulation redirect back up into userspace to be received by a special daemon that then sends the audio into dmix and then back into kernel space, so you have a kind of W shape, but I never heard of any implementation. And any such thing would be very slow, perhaps slower than alsa-oss. How *exactly* does this work, given that dmix mixes in userspace but the OSS emulation (unless you use alsa-oss) takes place in the kernel? thanks -mike -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
