I'll have to go in a compile the kernel module for my soundcard and try it to see whether it works with the "real" oss. A friend of mine speculated that I may have a different pthread library, but plugging in a different soundcard module should be easy to do. Have you used viavoice with anything other than the demo programs? Chris On Wed, Apr 11, 2001 at 04:17:28PM -0400, Jacob Schmude wrote: > Hi > Well that's exactly what mine does.
