	No. Unfortunately, I'm like the blind man of Hindustan trying to 
figure out what the elephant looks like. I have no idea how sound 
works under Linux.

	How do I compile it for the OSS interface? On the previous HD I 
just did configure, make, su root, make install and everything 
ran fine (once I installed libsndfile properly). I deleted all 
the GWC files except the tar and rebuilt it the same way on the 
new HD, which did not help.

	When I moved to the new HD, I had to re-install pkg-config before 
I could run configure. Then all seemed to go OK.

	rpm tells me that I have the following alsa packages installed:

		alsa-lib 0.5.10-2mdk
		alsa-lib-devel 0.5.10-2mdk
		alsa-utils 0.5.10-3mdk

	Anything else I can tell you, just let me know. I feel silly to be 
so helpless here. I once implemented a replacement RTL for 
Microsoft C 5.1 in assembly language in the DOS days. How Linux 
works makes double-precision FP look simple!

	Many thanks.
