So, what would typical user prefer ? (knowing that the codec communication is a very important part of the driver's behaviour) Short version: $ cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa options snd-hda-intel trace_cmd=1 model=6stack-dig or longer version : $ cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa options snd-hda-intel trace_codec_cmd=1 model=6stack-dig Last but not least, a longer name may even save some typing: you may have less user questions to answer to... ;-) That said, alsa is still your baby, so it's your call now.
