Dear List --

With Debian sources and Dan McCombs's "Installing and Configuring ALSA"
(from http://www.LinuxOrbit.com) I have compiled a 2.4.19 kernel, customized
the /etc/alsa/ config files for snd-ice1712, and installed ALSA via make-kpkg.
However, the created /lib/modules/2.4.19/alsa/*.o files include none for my card.

Though kpkg's log reports having entered and left alsa-driver's ice1712 directory,
it also reports having had "nothing to do" there and references '--with-cards= '
just once -- as just that, a blank assignment.

My subsequent attempt to force '--with-cards=ice1712' assignment, by running
the alsa-driver's configure and then retrying kpkg, also failed. Apparently kpkg
doesn't see or look for differences there, even as it rejects any '--with-' parameter
fed to it directly.

So, my question: How does one feed alsa's '--with-' params to kpkg (so that in the
ice1712 directory it will have _something_ to do)?

Barring a mistake of mine, I suspect that the system (kernel or alsa) ice1712 setup
is missing information for kpkg that its setup for other cards usually provides.
Or -- Might a more general (not card-specific) disconnect exist between alka and
kpkg? Here is my full /lib/modules/2.4.19/alsa contents after the installation:

/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.19 # make-kpkg modules_image
/usr/src # dpkg -i alsa-modules-2.4.19*.deb
/lib/modules/2.4.19/alsa # ls -1 *.o
snd-mixer-oss.o
snd-pcm-oss.o
snd-pcm.o
snd-seq-device.o
snd-seq-midi-event.o
snd-seq-oss.o
snd-seq.o
snd-timer.o
snd.o

Any ideas? Thanks for reading this far!

Peter
