The default genkernel kernel configurations (for at least x86/amd64) use in-kernel ALSA (as modules) and will for the forseeable future. If someone wants to argue with me over why I shouldn't be doing that, I'm all ears, but am likely to not change this until such time as we add some additional support to the Installer for allowing the install of on-disk external kernel modules in "Networkless" mode, and online external kernel modules in the other modes. In other words, if you want me to change it, you better break out your python-fu and get coding. ;] -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation
