Hi Chris, > 1) It does not look (from modules.conf) that I am using any OSS driver > for the mic's web the audio module is being loaded by the usbmgr (or hotplug script), so plug in your cam and check the output of lsmod. If there's an "audio" entry, but no "snd-usb-audio", then that one is the OSS driver, and should be the ALSA one. Sound configuration is somewhat distro-specific an i don't know what MdK uses for dirs and stuff. Probably Anne Wilson can tell. She's on MdK 10 too. ;) > 2) Let assume it is the case, how the OSS driver is loaded ? can I > prevent it being loaded ( I don't need the webcam > s mic after all !) Depends on your config of usbmgr/hotplug. Check the package's docs on details how to blacklist a module. > 3) Apparently , I have the OSS-emulation of ALSA (snd-pcm-oss) , could > it be any other reasons ? hard to tell. But going upstream Mandrake and searching for support there comes to mind. They're said to have a user-mailinglist where you could ask. > 4) Is there any "snd-usb-audio" like for ALSA I can use ? snd-usb-audio is the ALSA module. ;) -- Best regards, Kilian
