[desktop-discuss] Eklga OSS Solaris read fails with EAGAIN

[Elaine Xiong]

Mark,

I did a quick test on OSS driver(build1008 x86) using my raw patch. The 
read failure did go away. Thanks for your reminder!
Tweaking the setting of ossxmix is also true so Ekiga and ossrecord can 
record correctly since the default mic volume is zero. Anyway I attached 
my unpolished patch for your reference. It seems some diff between our 
patch except the O_NONBLOCK thing :-D . Maybe we can have a discuss next 
week . I must go now :-)


Best Regards,
Elaine
