I have OSS sound.
But I have a big problem with Skype:
I have been trying with Echo123:
Without using arts (I mean out of KDE or in KDE without using artsdsp -m skype), I have no sound in skype. (When i try to speak to someone we can not hear each other, and if i try to speak to Echo, skype tells me that my sound is not working properly).
If I use artsdsp, I can hear, I can hear (at least to Echo123) but I can not be heared at all, I have switched on the "Full Duplex" option, but it remains failing. In principle, I thought I had ALSA sound, but I've checked the sound part of Kcontrol panel I can only choose OSS (and OSS multithread), so I should be using OSS. I have tested other programs like mplayer or xmms works perfectly.
What do you think that could be happening in my computer? Could you tell me which log/ hardware message I should post here so that we can look for what am i doing wrong?
I am using Debian GNU/Linux on a laptop, and I have installed skype from the skype_1.1.0.20-1_i386.deb file.
Regards and thank you in advance,
Antonio

I realized of more sound problems in other programs like Gaim, and I have solved it upgrading to ALSA and using the compability with OSS. Now, everything is working fine!!
