Hi Guenter & Reine,
Well, I hacked pretty hard on the sound support for 0.26 (so making "-audiobuf" use the GETISPACE/GETOSPACE ioctls for instance.) On drivers that support those features (like my Creative PCI driver) this works great, but apparently I really should be offering a "-stupid-linux-audio-driver" flag to go back and do it the 0.25 way with -setfragsize or whatever. I confess I don't know what the fragment size business even does, but on PCI128 it's nowhere as good as using GETISPACE/GETOSPACE.
So I propose to try to put out a "patch" of 0.26 giving the choice, perhaps using Guenter's proposed flag name. Right now I'm trying to put out a new release of fiddle~ etc, so the "patch" might not hit the web until this weekend or so...
cheers Miller
