I have aoss working, for instance running saytime and ogg123 simultaneously as Keith did. It wasn't apparently necessary to change anything in my kernel; I just implemented Keith's file as my .asoundrc. As for zinf, if I run it by itself not using the oss-wrapper, it still works fine. If I run it without the oss-wrapper while anything else using aoss or alsa is running, I get an error about audio device is busy. If I try it through aoss, it appears to run but no sound comes out, maybe because its set up to run through alsa instead of oss? Don't know if this helps any. -- Cheryl "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."
