- The conversion to ALSA works great, but the modules for OSS compatibility segfault whenever an app tries to use them. Segfaults in the kernel are fun! There is pretty much nothing to do but reboot after that.
Well OSS (Open Sound System) is flagged depricated, so it is going to fade out. As you seem to have problems with it why just not do it completely and also drop the OSS compatability. I have dropped it months ago and never had problems!
I was just wondering who here has used the new udev device loader as opposed to devfs.
I've tried using devfs, but I never liked it. Now I'm using udev and that works great. I had one or two devices missing but since udev is in active development I just wait for the next release.
