Hi, I'm working on a driver for some hardware MPEG decompression boards, with an ALSA driver for the audio part of the chip. For a good support with most applications, I need a special configuration for this driver, that would be in /usr/share/alsa/cards/EM8300.conf. Unfortunately, this location varies with the distros. I heard that it was somewhere in /etc for RedHat and Fedora. Moreover, alsa-lib maight be installed by some user in their home directory. That's why I'd like to know if there is some programmatic way to find out where I should install my configuration. Any idea? If there is none, I guess I could default to installing in /usr/share/alsa/cards and let the user specify another location through my ./configure script if needed.
