I would have hoped so too at the time. Reporting it to the list didn't get any response since it was already fixed upstream, but it took a while before it was merged down to the linux tree. Also, it seems chipsets can be wired up differently in different motherboards. A driver can work perfectly for hundreds of boards and still fail on the same chipset on another machine. In any case "X code is broken" "why not use Y code instead" isn't really productive. It's a good thing I was using the OSS drivers; if everyone used the alsa drivers and nobody was testing the OSS drivers nobody would know they were broken. -- greg - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
