Hi, I got around the ALSA drivers build problem by doing the following: In the driver directory, edit include/adriver.h, line 251. It looks like this: #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 14) typedef unsigned __nocast gfp_t; #endif Comment out the typedef. Here's what I did: #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2, 6, 14) /* typedef unsigned __nocast gfp_t; */ #endif Save/exit the file, then run "make clean" then "make". This allowed me to successfully build the driver.

I'm trying to upgrade the ALSA driver, libs and utils to the 1.0.13 versions so that I can get the new drivers for my SB Live! 24-bit PCI card, which is based on the ca0106 driver. I downloaded the tar files from the ALSA site, copied them into /usr/src/alsa, extracted them and followed the directions from Quick Install from the ALSA wiki. When I run the configure utility from the driver directory, during the build, I get this error (full output from the build is shown at the end of this message). What have I done wrong? make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13' make -C /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp/source SUBDIRS=/usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13 O=/lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp/build CPP="gcc -E" CC="gcc" modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-42.0.3.EL-smp-i686' CC [M] /usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13/acore/memalloc.o In file included from /usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13/acore/memalloc.inc:13, from /usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13/acore/memalloc.c:1: /usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13/include/adriver.h:251: error: redefinition of typedef 'gfp_t' include/linux/gfp.h:133: error: previous declaration of 'gfp_t' was here make[4]: *** [/usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13/acore/memalloc.o] Error 1 make[3]: *** [/usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13/acore] Error 2 make[2]: *** [_module_/usr/src/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.13] Error 2 make[1]: *** [modules] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-42.0.3.EL-smp-i686' make: *** [compile] Error 2 Here are some details on my setup: - Redhat version: Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 4) - Redhat kernel version: 2.6.9-42.0.3.Elsmp - Current ALSA versions: [root@engdev1 aklein]# rpm -qa | grep -I alsa alsa-lib-1.0.6-5.RHEL4 alsa-utils-1.0.6-5 - The /proc/asound directory doesn't exist. - Output of modinfo soundcore: [root@engdev1 aklein]# modinfo soundcore filename: /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp/kernel/sound/soundcore.ko description: Core sound module author: Alan Cox license: GPL alias: char-major-14-* vermagic: 2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp SMP 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4 depends: Thanks for your help.
