I haven't used the OSS sound modules in a while, but I know from experience that the ALSA 0.5 drivers (with OSS compatibility) build correctly for me and the ALSA 0.9 drivers do not. 0.9 doesn't build the mixer device for my card, for some reason.
I have not tried to install the binary packages for ALSA 0.5. Oh, and xamixer2 says there's no such device when I try to control this card, but gamixer works just fine. F. Edward Barrett -- F.

I have installed a Debian Testing (woody) on my PC and I was not able to hear a note from the sound card - a Sound Blaster Audio PCI 128.
