those of us who are using Sid or some kernel 2.6, alsa's really the only
way to go, and its not fully mature yet, in my opinion. I was having
issues with the old oss driver being loaded too, and my only solution
was to rename it so that it wouldn't be loaded. I even removed
discover, even though I had audio discovery disabled. Now, I can't get
my mixer to work or appear under /dev. So, it'll probably require some
more work. Hopefully one day this will all be automated and painless. I
don't think that I've ever had a distrobution install sound correctly
out-of-the-box first try. Granted, I'm no linux guru, but I'm not a newbie either and I don't feel I should have to spend so much time reading documentation and newsgroups to have to figure out how to get a relatively old technology working correctly.

What with all the sound card posts flying round recently, it doesn;t seem like anyone's getting audio, and here I am with 2 systems working perfectly with OSS (no udev/devs and none of that alsa malarky).g
