Thanks for the response.

Given that there's specific support in alsa-driver's configure script
for RH9 as well as a mechanism in alsa-driver for linking to ALSA
supplied header files when the system ones are not present in the
Linux kernel version ALSA is been built for, I wasn't sure if this
support was some historical artifact or was intended to allow current
ALSA versions to support older Linux versions.

If I don't get anywhere I'll consider an Linux version upgrade for the box.

Simon.

(BTW, most of my machines use current Linux versions. It's just that
I've had no need to do that with this specific box (which is not
Internet connected) yet.)
