Is there any better documentation than this somewhere? I have a custom audio (and other stuff) cape I was working on a couple years ago and had to put aside. I would like to get back to that soon, and I see now that there's a new way to configure it. Is there anything that talks about how to configure Debian to set up my cape in the new paradigm?
