Tim - original message - Subject: Re: [Alsa-user] AD1986A problems From: "Gianluca Cecchi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 19/06/2006 2:07 pm You forgot to mention your os specs: distro, release number, patches etc.... AFAIK, 2.6.17 comes with alsa 1.0.11rc4 + some fixes, not 1.0.11 final release See http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.17 and search for the string "1.0.1" Knowing your os specs could help guessing.... BTW (for developers): are there particular reasons why final 2.6.17 contains yet the rc4 release and not the 1.0.11 final, released about two months ago? Technical, people too busy, difficluties in synchronizing branches or other reasons? If the problem depends on not enough time/people to test against new versions before going to release, I could give my (little) help or eventually a page on alsa web site could produce useful effects. Probably to have kernel and alsa in better sync could help generally. I don't know exactly the internals of alsa/kernel syncing so excuse me in advance if my thoughts are trivial.
