The prob. w/
portaudio is it abstracts to OSS, not
ALSA and I'd rather not take the least-common
denominator road.
No. PortAudio abstracts to a callback model. Its
closer to JACK than
either OSS or ALSA. It isn't any closer to ALSA than
it is to OSS.
I phrased that poorly. Say someone has ALSA and
doesn't have OSS compatibility. Would an app written
in portaudio work on their sys? If it doesn't, then
that's what I meant by that it doesn't abstract to
ALSA. If it does, then What I said was wrong, my bad.
