how to remove ALSA & PulseAudio so I can use OSS? [Solved]

[3dfx]

I new to sabayon and I'm going to install oss

how do I go about blacklisting and removing alsa and Pulse Audio?

If you have problems with your sound normally deactivating pulseaudio should be enough.

You can do this by following these simple steps:

Become root-user in console and execute:

Code: Select all

mv /usr/bin/pulseaudio /usr/bin/pulsesucks

Reboot!

After login become root-user again and execute:

Code: Select all

alsaconf

You have oss implemented anyway so removing alsa makes no sense in my opinion.

Unless you want to use oss4...
