XMS problem with Aladdin demo
Hello.

very long delays in the sound. Changing $_oss_max_frags = (
0x20) to (0x5) seems to fix this. I have this on both my workstation and my laptop. Is this because of a crappy driver/audiochip?
No, thats the crappy sound code of dosemu this time.

Is there any reason the default isn't set lower?
I don't know, I think it was to avoid the underruns, but 0x20 is probably too much.
Anyway, the sound code needs a complete rewrite. And this time one really have to *think* before rewriting it. Currently there is no manpower to do that.

What are the requirements of a new sound system, from your experience with the current one?
