My impression is that their decision to architect the thing such that every vendor can wire things up their own way (or "add value" in marketing speak) is the root of the support nightmare that these devices are. It seems that the only way to improve things would be to either get every single PC vendor to help, or make the pin configs settable from userspace and develop a tool to translate from the vendor provided Windows .inf files. Do I grok the situation correctly? ;-) Lee _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
