Yes! This patch works wonderfully... The mmapped sound is great, much better than the ALSA drivers. The patch also applies without a hitch to 2.4.0, since the driver hasn't been updated in a while (hope you feel better soon, Jeff). I haven't found any bugs, but my test of "see if it runs quake3 and soldier of fortune without clipping or crashing" is far from exhaustive. I can definitely say that it's better than the ALSA emulation of OSS, since there's no annoying mixing slowdown and corresponding clipping. Thanks!
