Several years ago I had similar problems; then another user complained about the same. Experience shows that if you are persistent and make enough noise, you'll get an account. You can also try to file a bug against ALSA - at Novell. If, by any chance, you can reproduce the bug using a SUSE CD/DVD, then file a bug against ALSA at Novell. Maybe it's even possible to file a bug against ALSA bug tracking system at Novell since Novell/SUSE sponsors ALSA, and it was easy to create an account with Novell. Good luck, Sergei. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
