Any news on that?  (No problem if the answer is no. :))  By the way,
for reference, what kernel were you building against?



Apologies, I have been overloaded with other stuff for the last few 
months. I have 3 nearly free weeks until Dec will get around to look 
at this and other Mac specific bugs (I have a few more filed vs X, etc).


It fails to build because the alsa driver source has the expectation 
that pdev_archdata contains the same information as dev_archdata which 
on ppc includes references to the openfirmware tree.


Well, in 2.6.32 as shipped in squeeze that structure is blank. So rather 
unsurprisingly it ftbs. I am going to pull .38 to see how did this 
structure evolve over time.


Brgds,

Standard squeeze one.

 1.0.23+dfsg-2

This is a ppc only problem. Unless I am mistaken, that part of the build 
is not invoked on other platforms.

I am still getting from time to time (not always) sound glitches similar
to the ones reported in: Bug#610859 so I decided to try building more 
recent alsa from source. However it does not build.
