alsa is actually in the kernel tree, although the kernel version is
experimental.
bug hunting will be improved in future along with increase of watching
eyes...

sorry for that - looks like the bug reporting system on sourceforge is
not effective so far.  (i haven't see bug reports on sourceforge, just
due to lack of time.)
i set my priority to alsa-devel ML, and i guess other developers /
testes do so.  if you have a non-trivial driver problem, please post
to alsa-devel ml, too, (with a meaningful subject, preferably :)
so that we - at least - "know" the problems.  "fix the problem" is a
different story, of couse :)


anyway, i believe the bug is fixed now on cvs.


ciao,

Takashi
