Someone recently talked about compiling ALSA 1.0.15 under various distributions but not Debian. I've recently being compiling kernels on Debian using make-kpkg, which provides a version.h file in the /usr/src/linux tree which the alsa-driver needs. However compiling and making a .deb directly from the alsa-driver sources on www.alsa-project.org failed as a file in alsa-driver would overwrite a file in libc-dev. In the last 24 hours packages alsa-source and alsa-base version 1.0.15 have entered Debian unstable (sid). When alsa-source is installed, file /usr/share/doc/alsa-source/README.Debian provides compilation instructions. In my case, with the files from a kernel compilation in /usr/src/linux, I did: cd /usr/src bzip2 -dc alsa-source.tar.bz2|tar -xvf /dev/fd/0 dpkg-reconfigure alsa-driver cd /usr/src/linux make-kpkg modules-image cd .. dpkg -i alsa-modules-2.6.23*.deb alsaconf which unpacked, configured, compiled, installed and started ALSA 1.0.15 on Debian unstable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
