I am using a tool to write the application. The sound will be played by this tool itself and it uses OSS. Sorry I cannot provide more information as to what the tool is and what is the application.<div><br></div><div>So I cannot change the way I play sound since this would require me to change the underlying tool. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Then is asking the user to run a shell script which does all the work for me the only way to ask the XO to load the OSS module? Isn't there any way else to do it so that the user doen't have to download the script, login to the terminal and then run this script.</div>

It's part of the core Sugar dependencies and offers very low latency playback and the ability to mix channels.<br>
<br>Or, are you using some extended functionality of OSS that's not present in pygame.mixer?<br><font color="#888888">
