Hi,
since i updated my gentoo box from kernel 2.6.16 to 2.6.17 all apps
using OSS for sound didnt work. Skype pitched the sound, Firefox had
gaps and so on.
I did some git-bisect to find out what broke my sound and got compile
errors...
Here is what i got to:

I'm totaly sure one of this comitts broke the sound because i had some
compile error and copying the whole directory and continued in one with
git bisect bad and in the other with good. So i got two 'solutions' but
i hope at least this can help fix the bug.
If i can do any more for fixing this, just ask.
If this bug is already fixed: I'm sorry, just ignore this mail.
