Does somebody already the idea of porting ALSA to FreeBSD ? http://www.alsa-project.org/ Beneath FreeBSD making music is one of my favourite hobbies. Currently I'm bound to windows for doing homerecording to get pleasent recording programs. I noticed that there are also some great homerecording tools available in OpenSource fashion, but they are written to use ALSA. For me personally ALSA looks like a new de facto standard in the Linux world. SuSE in Germany already ships wth ALSA. ALSA has great soundcard support. Even the high end soundcards like from Hammerfall with DSPs are supported. List of supported cards: http://www.alsa-project.org/~goemon/ ALSA even comes with an OSS compatibility library, which sounds to me, that older programs using OSS style are still supported to work, which sounds good to me. Is there some ongoing work/effort on this ???
