if you have a soundcard which cannot do hardwaremixing (a card that can mix audio output of more than one application) then install a recent version of ALSA. It does software mixing per default (via the DMIX plugin), without any additional configuration work. Then, Firefox still uses OSS, done via the ALSA OSS emulation. Unfortunately, when using the OSS emultion, softwaremixing does not work for technical reasons. To solve this, run Firefox on top of the configuration mentioned above as follows: aoss firefox I never used this, but I was told that it works. Best regards ce -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
