yes and that was also the reason for my reply ;)
as all of the peeps that answered me seemed to
have missed the point, i think, it was my fault.
the problem is: i install one app, install another app,
both are outputting sound, and it won't work.
you can port open source apps to audio, and blame
commercial companies to write apps for alsa
(Id did, the new doom III release has alsa support)
but u still need to struggle around with alsa
config, etc.
the problem is that it doesn't work out of the box
like on WinD0w$. well - don't get me wrong, i actually
like the fact that linux is highly configurable, and
i personally have no problem to write my .asoundrc,
but if linux should have success on the desktop, thats
definitely a must-have.
