Yep :) > original sound_core.c is ok as long as if you don't use devfs _and_ > multiple cards. the one in alsa-kernel is fixed for such a > condition. but, generally, swapping to the fixed one will cause no > problem. it's fully compatible. > So as long as I don't use devfs I don't need it. Currently I still use the /proc interface but I don't have concrete understanding of the difference between the two yet. fromwhat I gathered you have to specify devfs in the kernel for it to be used. Is that correct? Anyway I definitely use multiple cards so I will do the change if neccessary. -- Patrick Shirkey - Boost Hardware Ltd.
