Have you followed the gentoo alsa guide? http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml At the beginning it lists pros and cons of alsa-driver (for modular drivers) vs. the drivers included with the kernel (either modular or statically linked). If you want the latest drivers from the ALSA project then alsa-driver is probably a good idea. Zac -- [email protected] mailing list
