Never fear! Protux will live forever... hehehe ;-)
But seriously ... it could be always possible that sometimes a query will get 
lost in the community, so don't be shy to post once more when there is no 
answer after several days!!!

Sorry, no :-( ... but I will forward this reply also to the protux-devel list, 
so hopefully the other guys will give you better support!

But you should post the messages (console) when starting protux with the --d3 
and --d4 flags (especially the section when protux detecting/checking your 
card).
Also it would to helpful to know about your actual used protux/mustux versions.

Hhhmmm .... as far as I know protux don't have some kind of oss-emulation, but 
maybe this could be a good feature request, guys? RFC
