Well, I've gone ahead and done it anyways... talking with DaveM last night, he OKed doing this for 2.2, so I wasted no time. I committed it to CVS last night (which you can get with the instructions at http://vger.samba.org), or I've got a separate patch that should apply to at least the recent 2.2.x kernels at: http://www.uzix.org/sparclinux/2.2.x-dbri.patch > This would of course explain why cam didn't work for you. Naww... he has a U5/U10 which uses the cs4231 driver which does not have this problem. The only logical reason why that might be is because there was a bug in the ioctl numbering until recently, but I don't think it affected 2.2.x kernels, so I'm at a loss (unless I play with it). > I'm not sure if I'm ready to do a kernel upgrade on this yet.

Well, if you decide to be brave, then good luck... but you still haven't mentioned if you were getting output on the line-out port. With this patch, you should be able to "audioctl -w play.port=4" and have it just on that output alone. > Anyway thanks for the help!

Can the CPU not handle doing anything more?
