How I understand it - and I could need some clarification from the real driver pros - one of the goals of ALSA was to modularize driver architecture and get more tasks away from the kernel to user land or expressed another way: abstract software design from hardware design. This in turn should make it easier to write drivers for ALSA or maybe easier to write drivers that provide more functionality? Am I describing this somehow correctly? ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__
