I assume that you mean that you got ALSA compiled for the internal sound chip. What sound chip is it? Were you able to get OSS running properly with this chip? How about running xmms while using ALSA's OSS emulation?
Yes, it is the SoundBlaser Live for the ppc (I believe it is at lease it was with the computer when I got it lol ) with the sbawe driver.
