Patches are welcome ;-) It is quite a big problem to maintain alsa-source which builds different against Debians kernel and a customized vanilla one. This has to be done on 11-14 different platforms. The Debian kernel team does a very good job so users have to rely on Debians build. > But if you had actually read my message to the bug reports, > you would not have asked why I wanted to compile alsa-source, > because I had already included the reason why in that message. If you need snd-seq-oss build from kernel-source fila a bug against linux-2.6 or whatever kernel you want. > Mit freundlichen Gruessen, To be honest, this should be "Mit freundlichen Grüßen." > Greg Elimar -- Numeric stability is probably not all that important when you're guessing;-)
