ALSA distribution should include a configure script file that can be customized with settings, and saved by the user. Saving the configure script file is recommended, as the ALSA src directory may get deleted. The configure script file records everything needed to recreate the users ALSA compile. << MY CONFIG FILE name= make_config_alsa_driver >> # Configure ALSA driver ./configure --with-cards=loopback,sb8,sb16,sbawe,ens1371,via82xx \ --with-card-options=ac97-power-save,sb16-csp,verbose-procfs,verbose-print k \ --with-sequencer=yes --with-oss=yes --with-pcm-oss-plugins=yes --with-deb ug=full << END MY CONFIG FILE >> I had to submit this configure at least 15 times during all the attempts at getting ALSA to compile. These are way too complicated to be typed in by hand on every attempt. All my configure-script files are saved in "/root/configs" This is the only way I have found to progressively configure ALSA and save the configure to a separate safe place. It is a tiny file, does not interfere with existing methods, and is a great help to those who want a clearly readable written record of the ALSA configure. You may use my configure file as an example in the distribution and/or in INSTALL. << INSTALL TEXT >> Modify the file "make_config_alsa_driver" with your custom settings. The setting switches are found by executing "./configure --help=short" for the ALSA settings, and "./configure --help" for settings for target, libraries, and other configure environment. Perform the ALSA configure by invoking the file "./make_config_alsa_driver". Save the configure file to safe place in case you need to recompile ALSA someday. example>> mkdir /root/configs example>> cp -a make_config_alsa_driver /root/configs << END INSTALL TEXT >> Wesley D.
