If not, I'll see to take a look next week. vapier@gentoo.org 2005-12-17 09:35:50 0000 start(): iterate over the /proc/asound/*/pcm??/oss files and cat them into a local cache stop(): iterate over the files in the cache and cat them into the /proc oss files flameeyes@gentoo.org 2007-02-18 02:09:05 0000 AAAAAAND finally it's fixed. I've added support for saving and restoring the oss files, together with the move of asound.state in /var/lib/alsa, where there's space to save the oss files. Sorry if it took a helluva lot of time.
