All OSS files have been installed. However there are some problems
with loading the driver module(s).

Please take a look at /usr/lib/oss/logs/soundconf.log for more info.

any ideas?
I know that the sound works with alsa. Im looking for a way to get oss sound working, or to completly undo what the setup did so that I can just use alsa.

so you've got three clues. Line one looks like a PATH issue to me, the returned code helps you search LQ and teh intarweb for clues and the log should tell you more. If unsure try posting the relevant lines from the log.
