Re: Is it time for remove (crap) ALSA from kernel tree ?

port is a problem. It's good that people are not thinking that ALSA is already perfect, it leaves us (me) a hope it will be improved. -- Anton Petrusevich - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More ma

do use one, I alway start by googling > up a few examples and take it from there. Perhaps someone from alsa-user > will step in. I am not about ice1724 or .asounrc here. I am trying to talk about user-friendliness of ALSA. It's very unfriendly. -- Anton Petrusevich - To unsubscr

Is it time for remove (crap) ALSA from kernel tree ?

the app. Is there a tool which can be used to configure .asoundrc? I want to be able to hear sound from flashplayer on my reciever or in my headphones -- how? It's not quite clear to me how to get full duplex working with my .asoundrc. -- Anton Petrusevich - To unsubscribe from this list: se

Rik's VM contains a deadlock somewhere

Hi Linus, please, check carefully Rik's VM patch, it definitly contains a deadlock, which can be seen on low-memory computers. Try mem=8m. I wasn't able to use any Rik patch since against -test8 (-t8-vmpatch{2,4}, -test9-pre{1,2}). It boots fine(mem=16m), but then stalls begin for some time and f
