11 humm .. this will only install the presently ppc'd alsa and not the
12 ~ppc'd alsa-driver-0.9.0_rc6 (assuming not everyone has
13 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~ppc").
14
15 emerge /usr/portage/media-sound/alsa-driver/alsa-driver-0.9.0_rc6.ebuild
16
17 . etc .. plus alsa-tools require media-libs/alsa-lib (rc6) (missing from
18 your list).

31 The OSS emulation seems to work OK (though, at least on my pismo, it mutes on
32 sleep and doesn't react to normal mute/unmute keys .. either via pbbutonsd or
33 via gkrellm-sound). Also, using alsa as output with xmms is horribly broken,
34 the OSS output plugin behaves as expected.

36 Not ready from primetime .. imo.
