Hummph... I've intermitently been trying to make alsa work on the
so-called AC97 chipset on my motherboard for something in excess of 2
years now. Alsa development has been at a snails pace and probably
won't get to my current Biostar M7-VIB mobo before its obsolete.

OSS? Works out of the box, cost me IIRC a 20 dollar bill, and has
been updated at least 10 times since I first paid the shareware fee.
IMO money well spent.

If OSS does not work in 2.6, then it'll be a while before I'm doing
2.6. But I suspect it will be just fine by the time the real 2.6.0
is out.
