how to use OSS instead of ALSA slack 9.1

coffeedemon · 11-16-2004, 12:09 PM

I have been trying to get ALSA working for 4 days and tried everything upgrading kernel to 2.4.27, removing and reinstalling, editing the configurations, checked if the card is supported, et cetera - it is not working.

Even though it is unsupported now how can I setup OSS and use it instead of ALSA. Thanks.

I think just disabling support in the kernel and/or unloading alsa modules and compile the oss stuff should be enough.
But if you tell us details, maybe we can help you get sound working through alsa

it just so happens i finally got alsa working.... just slap me and discard me as a n00b.

i was using wrong drivers after i upgraded the kernel... thanks for attempted effort at helping me.
