Hi, thanks for your reply.I've followed your howto, but on the end of building of alsa-modules*.deb I got this output: CC [M] /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/soc-core.o CC [M] /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/soc-dapm.oIn file included from /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/soc-dapm.c:2:/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/../alsa-kernel/soc/soc-dapm.c: In function ‘dapm_pop_time_store’:/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/../alsa-kernel/soc/soc-dapm.c:834: error: implicit declaration of function ‘strict_strtoul’/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/../alsa-kernel/soc/soc-dapm.c: At top level:/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/../alsa-kernel/soc/soc-dapm.c:1043: warning: ‘snd_soc_dapm_connect_input’ is deprecated (declared at /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/../alsa-kernel/soc/soc-dapm.c:1040)/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/../alsa-kernel/soc/soc-dapm.c:1043: warning: ‘snd_soc_dapm_connect_input’ is deprecated (declared at /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/../alsa-kernel/soc/soc-dapm.c:1040)make[6]: *** [/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc/soc-dapm.o] Error 1make[5]: *** [/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/soc] Error 2make[4]: *** [_module_/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver] Error 2make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/mira/linux-2.6.24.7'make[3]: *** [compile] Error 2make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver'make[2]: *** [build-stamp] Error 2make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver'make[1]: *** [kdist_image] Error 2make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver'Module /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver failed.Hit return to Continue my googling is not very successful any advice? mira -------------------------------------------------------------------------This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challengeBuild the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizesGrand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the worldhttp://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/_______________________________________________Alsa-user mailing listAlsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
