OSS has hardware drivers. It comes with bunch of kernel modules.
That would mean
backport of already present oss kernel modules or are
theses OSS kernel modules was removed previously and only the compat
layer was available ?
What is the "userland" needs for that ?
In my case (vlc), Iv'e disabled the oss support (along with v4l1) by F-11
I'm not against to have some experiments done externally from rpmfusion
(read: I would allow it a "tobedefined" rpmfusion-experimental), but
not if this mean recompilation of userland applications.
