Can I use ALSA and OSS?

My system currently runs fine with ALSA.  I've recently started using cedega (wine) to run some games.  I've read that cedega performs better under OSS.  Can I install OSS to my system to only use for cedega, or will the two sound systems conflict?
Thanks

Bad Sia!
Never do 'pacman -Sy' without the 'pacman -Syu'
Bad things will happen.

You DO notice that's the ONLY place in the beginner's guide where its used that way? Just to ensure the latest python is gotten. And that everything else there uses pacman -S?
To OP, alsa-oss is your best bet, don't change between alsa and oss constantly, most apps will need resetting....

  • Using Alsa with OSS

    Hello everyone.  I'm using Alsa with Pulseaudio for sound, but I'm having trouble getting it to work with my computer's speakers. I can, however, get Alsa to work with my usb headset. I considered using OSS instead of Alsa, but I heard that it didn't work with usb microphones. Is there any way to run both Alsa and OSS at the same time, so I can use the headset and the speakers? Thanks.

    I think Alsa might not have loaded my drivers

  • How can I use undo and redo with run time menu?

    Hi..I try to built my own menu for graphic programming. How can I use undo and redo in labview with run time menu?

    filozof-
    During runtime, by default, LabVIEW has undo/redo data changes under the edit menu. This will undo/redo changes made to controls during runtime. If you want a more extensive undo/redo (custom for your application), you are going to have to do quite a few things
    1) Create a custom runtime menu (Edit>>RunTime Menu) and place your own undo/redo controls on it
    2) Keep an action history in your program
    3) Catch the Shortcut menu event for your custom undo/redo controls
    4) Reverse the last action in your histroy when you catch the event
    This method would allow you undo entire operations (like resize, move, or whatever kind of functionality you are building into your application) unstead of just undoing data changes.

    No. Return it and get your money back if still within the 30 day return window. All US iPhones are carrier locked and cannot be officially unlocked.

    Try resetting your phone, hold the home and sleep/wake button down until the apple symbol comes up, then release. If that doesnt work, you may have damaged your phone and need to take it to an apple genius bar.

    Overloading means changing signature as well as implementation of a method.
    Overriding is changing only implementation of method with signature unchanged.
    From ABAP perspective, only the CONSTRUCTOR method can be overloaded in a subclass i.e both the signature and implementation can be adapted in subclass.
    Any other method can't be overloaded. It can only be redefined/overridden i.e implementation changed with signature unchanged.
    In ABAP  there is something called a redefinition.
    When you inherit a class from a super class, you can redifne a method. You cannot chnage the signature( Interface) of the method. It will remain the same as that of the super class.You must redefine a method in the same visibility section in which it appears in the superclass.
    Eg.
    CLASS C_SUPER_CLASS DEFINITION .
    PUBLIC SECTION.
    METHODS: DRIVE ,
    STOP.
    PROTECTED SECTION.
    DATA SPEED TYPE I.
    ENDCLASS.
    CLASS C_SUPER_CLASS IMPLEMENTATION.
    METHOD DRIVE.
    SPEED = 0.
    WRITE: / 'Bike speed =', SPEED.
    ENDMETHOD.
    ENDCLASS.
    CLASS C_SUB_CLASS DEFINITION INHERITING FROM C_SUPER_CLASS.
    PUBLIC SECTION.
    METHODS DRIVE REDEFINITION.
    ENDCLASS
    CLASS C_SUB_CLASS IMPLEMENTATION.
    METHOD DRIVE.
    SPEED = SPEED + 10.
    WRITE: / 'Bicycle speed =', SPEED.
    ENDMETHOD.
    ENDCLASS.

  • Can we use exceptions and conditions at the same time?

    can we use exceptions and conditions at the same time? Are there any dependencies between exceptions an conditions?

    Exceptions are used when there are some mistakes , or exceeds the supposed values, we can highligt that in different colours for enabling the validator to notice easily. In this we are giving conditions for considering the value as exceptions. suppose, if the values is out of the range -1 to +1 then exception.
    But conditions can be considered as the restrictions given in measure level also. So please elaborate what you meant by conditions

  • If i download windows with bootcamp does that mean i can still use Macintosh and if so how

    if i download windows with bootcamp does that mean i can still use Macintosh and if so how

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you installed Windows properly, you can still start in OS X and use it whenever you want. However, Boot Camp changes the startup partition to Windows, so you may note that you can't use Mac OS X.
    There are two ways of starting in OS X:
    1. Hold the Option (Alt) key while your computer is starting until you see all the bootable partitions in the screen, and choose your OS X partition.
    2. Hold the X key while your computer is starting.
    If you have a iMac or a Bluetooth keyboard, make sure you hold the key after hearing the startup chime.
    If you want to start in OS X by default, after starting in OS X, open System Preferences > Startup Disk, and choose the OS X partition

  • Can't use Hosting and Business Catalyst

    I have full CC-Membership, but can't use Hosting and BC.
    Following messages appearing on my CC-Account:
    On the apps-Page:
    "Full Creative Cloud Membership comes with hosting for up to 5 sites. View and manage these sites from the sidebar on the Creative Cloud home page."
    On the sidebar
    "Full Creative Cloud Membership comes with hosting for up to 5 sites."

    Same. This had me perplexed too for a while. And the 'help' pages aren't particularly 'helpful', so I did little poking around in the apps themselves.
    As it turns out, if you open up Dreamweaver and go to the 'Site' menu, there's an option to create a Business Catalyst test site from there (Dreamweaver helpfully crashed for me while doing this, but upon reopening it was all working). You pick a  site name and subdomain, assign a local folder, it asks for your CC/Adobe credentials (because it would make too much sense to just sign in automatically) and you should be good to go.
    After doing this and uploading a dummy test page, when I reloaded the Creative Cloud homepage it was now listing my test site undeneath the aforementioned confusing text in the sidebar.
    Hope that helps.

  • Can't use 'save' and 'save as' in Id, Ia and Ps.

    I can't use 'save' and 'save as' in Id, Ai and Ps. The window flips away. I've got Adobe CC. The Dutch version.

    Yes, it's executable; it tries to execute either way.
    The Unix LF through Smultron seemed to work. However, I don't see such an option in nano - only Mac and DOS. (I'm not too concerned, I'm pretty sure I"ll use Smultron on a regular basis to edit these files.)

    You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
    Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
    If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
    Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
    Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
    To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
