Do you know that patch is in kernel 2.6.30? Ben, the Debian Kernels aren't patched with future versions of the kernel. So again: If you want the newest alsa drivers (including the "patch") you have to install alsa-source-1.0.20 from sid/testing, linux-headers-2.6.26 and run 'm-a update && m-a prepare && m-a m-i alsa' from within /usr/src. The best solution would be to install 2.6.30 which includes the 1.0.20 alsa-drivers. Have a nice sunday as well ;-) Elimar -- Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
