Quake3 cannot output sound with ALSA

Hello! I'm the author of http://www.konstruktiv.org/q3jack/.
Does anybody need q3alsa? I suppose, I can make it in a couple of days. I also have q3jack-0.2 in the works, which has much less latency than artsdsp. If you're interested, please make me know.

Thank you.

q3alsa would be nice, indeed.

This http://fort.xdas.com/~kor/oss2jack/ could be an interesting alternative to q3jack. I still haven't test it.
It seems to be a more generic solution for oss emulation issues.

Well .. i've finally found a viable solution for me :p

put in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 if you have a kernel 2.6 the next lines

snd-pcm-oss
snd-seq-oss
snd-mixer-oss

then chmod 777 /dev/dsp (need to be root)

reboot
and tadaaaa it works :p

Hope it can help ya
