Hi Stan! I use my older kernel at the moment it.s 2.6.16.2 and it works. I always use the alsa, that comes with the kernel. I build them manually. Of course, when I installed the 2.6.20 kernel, I installed the correspondig alsa-* source packages. But I left them installed and returned to my old kernel. No problem. It must be a problem of the driver. I think 2.6.16.2 is running 1.0.11rc1, but I think I might have been wrong about 2.6.20 running some 1.0.14rc* version. So that is what I can tell. And I wouldn't like it too much to build external alsa, for then I'd have to load some modules and I think i'd had to do a lot of update on the boot process. The real distro I installed is rather old... :-) Kindest regards Julien -------- Music was my first love and it will be my last (John Miles) ======== FIND MY WEB-PROJECT AT: ======== http://ltsb.sourceforge.net the Linux TextBased Studio guide ======= AND MY PERSONAL PAGES AT: ======= http://www.juliencoder.de ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
