[Alsa-user] patching kernel source tree for ALSA

2008-08-16 Thread Phil Howard
I'm building a monolithic Linux kernel, which means no modules. I'd like to find out how I can upgrade ALSA in a kernel source tree so I can build a complete kernel image with the latest version of ALSA (1.0.17) on the latest Linux kernel (2.6.26.2) that has an older ALSA (1.0.16). I will post sep

By the way, our emails are getting out of sync. I already sent an email about putting a notice on the BugTracker page. I must use an email account on a different machine, not my own. My machine is used for research business and is off-internet. >> Bugtracker will not let me login, nor email an ac

[Alsa-user] Home page wiki

2008-08-16 Thread Wesley Johnson
Rene: The homepage is a wiki so it surely does. So getting an ALSA user account lets you modify the ALSA home page at will. There is a concept I do not agree with. Organization home pages should have one manager. I actually thought about posting my bug report in the middle of the home page and

2008-08-16 Thread Wesley Johnson
Can the ALSA web page managers please indicate on their pages which ones are for development team members only and which are for general users. I followed a link that said "I found a bug" and it led to the BugTracker page that wanted me to login. It had a button to create a new account, so I t

[Alsa-user] ALSA on Linux 2.4

2008-08-16 Thread Wesley Johnson
I have sent a number of postings about problems installing ALSA. (I have gone 10 months without sound, etc. etc. ) For those have not noticed, I am talking about an ALSA install on a system that does not have ALSA as the default sound driver. That is why I can reinstall it after doing a kernel co

[Alsa-user] remove snd prefix

2008-08-16 Thread Wesley Johnson
INSTALL directions for /etc/modules.conf The statement about removing snd- prefixes from some names is not explicit. It led me to believe that I needed to remove the snd- prefix from all alsa names in modules.conf. That DID NOT WORK. Actually it almost worked, it found the old OSS drivers which h

[Alsa-user] savable configure needed

2008-08-16 Thread Wesley Johnson
ALSA distribution should include a configure script file that can be customized with settings, and saved by the user. Saving the configure script file is recommended, as the ALSA src directory may get deleted. The configure script file records everything needed to recreate the users ALSA compile.

[Alsa-user] Success on VT1617A

2008-08-16 Thread Wesley Johnson
Successful ALSA, finally, after 10 months of no sound. Installed ALSA 1.0.17, which has a fix for VT1617, after trying 1.0.9, and 1.0.16. However, I had so many problems installing ALSA that I doubt that I ever really tested the previous ALSA versions. AMD Sempron, 1.6Ghz, 256MB Chaintech SK8T

[Alsa-user] Kernel wipes ALSA typo.

My previous message said compiler install where it should have said KERNEL install loses the ALSA drivers. This is a rewrite and covers some new ground too. This includes a suggested fix to the problem. I have spent 10 months without sound ( VIA8237 ) on my machine because ALSA would not work. I
