Thanks for the response. Yes, I have tried it today,
it functions well using alsaplayer, aumix functions
too, but when starting xmms, it stops with an error:
snd_mixer_attach: No such file or directory. I started
it as a root.

$ lsmod

dmasound_pmac          47144   0

But this is probably a xmms bug.

I use kernel 2.4.18-powerpc from woody.
Does it mean, that the bug is in the alsa drivers?
Or should I try to use some newer BenH's kernel?
