FreedomBox ot? sound problem

[Cheryl Homiak]

Don't know if this is related to freedombox/usound or not, but it appears
to have happened after I installed freedombox and ran usound. I have
kernels with commerical oss and I have kernels with the sblive support
(just under general sound in 2.4 kernels; under oss (deprecated) in 2.6
kernels). the reason I had kernels with both is that sometimes when I
upgrade commercial oss there are temporary glitches (mainly because of
differences of debian from other distros) and I want a backup. well, this
has been working fine; both sound systems have been working fine. Now,
although my commercial oss is still fine, when I switch to a kernel with
built-in sblive and try to run most applications, i get errors about
"/dev/dsp: no such device" and oss not opening. /dev/dsp is indeed there,
along with al the other /dev/dsp devices. I'm in the process now of
modularizing it to see if that will give me any further error messages,
but this is really weird. Could usound and/or freedombox have changed
something or is this totally out-of-the-blue unrelated?
Thanks.
