Friends,
        I'm using 0.9.0rc6 version of alsa drivers,libraries &
utilities.
1. Is the Kernel that comes with Redhat8.0 compatible with this alsa
version?
2. What is the benifit in re-compiling the kernel without changing
source code?
3. How can I recompile Kernel?
4. Could you please provide a few good links to get recompilation
related docs. 
Thanks
Kishna
