Hi,

OK so far ... But there are some binary programs (i.e. skype and teamspeak,
maybe also the flashplayer?) which can't be fixed in source. They just  
won't
work with the OSS driver and - as far as I can see - this concerns not only
the "ich" driver but all OSS drivers since the ioctl handling is done in  
the
framework.

Greetings,
