alsa is for low latency sound cards - use sdl or oss if you encounter problem
Is it possible to "repair" it?
What we have now? In linux I can't use ALSA, so I can't hear system sound at all (ICQ message coming, DVD is recorded, etc.).
In addition, I can't switch from UFOai to another application by pressing Alt-Tab (ctrl-tab, and so on). It's simply doesn't work (Zenerka propose press `, and then try to switch. Sorry, it doesn't work either).
And in UFOai we HAVE_NO save function in the middle of the mission!
So I have to end game after EVERY mission, exit from UFOai and check mail, etc...
I hope I've describe all the picture... 8-/
