I can't answer this question. *ducked* :-) Takashi? FYI: I posted the results of the test with Takashi's dma_mmap_coherent patch here: http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2006-June/024078.html On the other side it looks like this problem does not only affect ALSA. As far as I can tell also some V4L(2) drivers have a problem with mmaping non coherent DMA allocations, but I'm not sure (it's a long time since I did some tests with video cards on my AmigaOne). Naturally I can do some tests, if you or Takashi come up with a new patch. Thanks! Gerhard -- GMX startet ShortView.de. Hier findest Du Leute mit Deinen Interessen!
