OK, so I have tried this. And it is still the same.
I also downloaded the un-patched vanilla kernel, 2.4.19, and are running of that now. Still the same... :-( I must be doing something really wrong. I do exactly this : downloaded the complete alsa cvs tree. (yesterday) I go into the alsa-driver directory, and ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.19 --with-cards=cmipci --with-moddir=/lib/modules/2.4.19/misc I then typed ./cvscompile with the same options as above, I guess that the configure step is not necessary when using cvscompile, but just to be sure I did it. (there where no misc directory, so I created one just to see if anything ended up here; *it did not*) So the driver has been built, no errors, even if it (snd-cmipci.o) stayed in the alsa-driver source tree. The conclusion for me, is that the driver where built without problem, so next I go for alsa-lib: cd into alsa-lib. ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.19 I then get only one real error (?); "checking for kernel header files... directory /lib/modules//usr/src/linux-2.4.19/build/include/sound not found" I have no clue if this is fatal to the build. I then do: ./cvscompile --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2-4-19 I then get the same errors as described belove; /usr/bin/autoheader-2.13: Symbol 'VERSION' is not covered by /usr/share/autoconf/acconfig.h [..] configure.in: 85: required file 'include/config.h.in' not found [..] make[2]: *** [stamp-h.in] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/alsa/alsa-lib/include' make[1]: *** [config.h.in] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/alsa/alsa-lib/include' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 - Micael lp> Completely remove old modules in this directory by lp> typing lp> rm -rf /lib/modules/(your kernel version)/misc >> Compile the driver with these options. >> --with-kernel=(your kernel source dir path) lp> --with-moddir=/lib/modules/(your kernel version)/misc >> --with-cards=(your sound card chipset name) lp> type ./configure --help to see the >> rest of the options.
