Hm. That > leaves us with the kernel and kmod. Sorry, with the kernel. alsa-lib sounds perfectly viable to me. Both conf files are directly related to alsa. We recently added a modprobe conf file to nfs-utils for an NFSv4 related issue. Let's reassign this there, and I'll create a patch to install it in a proper location. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.

Tashkinov <t.artem(a)mailcity.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|CLOSED |ASSIGNED Resolution|WONTFIX | Keywords| |Reopened --- Comment #4 from Artem S. Tashkinov <t.artem(a)mailcity.com> 2012-05-02 09:45:26 EDT --- I wasn't really hostile, more sarcastic, but there is a reason for that. Previously we (Fedora/classic RedHat Linux) had a feature which could be easily enabled (mind that other distros enable it by default, but let's forget about that for a second) by editing dist-oss.conf. Now what you are basically saying - "I don't know any OSS applications that I care for, so users should google how to enable this feature (and master the terminal, su, sudo, modprobe commands), ISP vendors (instead of pointing the user to those files) now _each_ must supply files for /etc/modprobe.d/* (probably causing file conflicts)". If you don't feel like adding back those files which used to *belong* to modprobe, I am interested in what other package can accept them. Possible candidates are: kernel and alsa-lib (very very debatable). Hm. That leaves us with the kernel and kmod. Sorry, with the kernel. OK, reassign this bug to the kernel and let's see what kernel guys will say and what their excuse not to bundle those files will be ('cause I'm quite sure they will say - they don't belong to us). As for applications which still use OSS, here's a very incomplete list: SDL based applications libao based applications different old games based XMMS Not to count dozens of old applications which are not bundled by Fedora. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.

I really wasn't gving an "attitude". I asked if you were having a problem and you decided to become rather hostile. If there is something in Fedora broken by not shipping those files, we can possibly move them to another package. Kmod itself doesn't need to ship them. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
