please file that specific bug in the alsa bugtracking system. the alsa dev guys are usually quite responsive. > Thank you for providing this mechanism for testing and reporting on a > -rc kernel! I hope we can fix this before 2.6.16 is released. hmm it's already a bit late in the release cycle for alsa updates, but it would be great if that report reaches upstream so they can fix it. thanks -- maks ps there was a mail from alsa upstream posted on debian-devel, how they like the reports to be usefull for them. i'm sorry that i can't find at the moment, maybe someone else may help with a pointer. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
