What do have distributors like we are to do that modules do compile a distributed header? A build against a vanilla one suceeded! (2.6.*) Alsa drivers intention is to build against _every_ 2.6 series kernel. I know much installations running a 2.6.11 or 2.6.5...... And there are no bugs like "none headers found" in the alsa BTS. Think, there are thousands of users which compile their own alsa-drivers and no one complained about a failure like the Debian ones.

I'll install the headers and try it again. Elimar -- Do you smell something burning or ist it me?
