Hello, I am new to ALSA and Linux. I was trying to understand the ALSA architecture. I have Linux Box with Intel sound card. with Suse 10.1 on it. I launched the audio player (Real player) and audio plays fine. Then, I built the kernel and installed it. I put some printk's in intel8x0.cand control.c. (could see the my code was complied) Even though I changed volume muted etc couldn't see any of my printk in dmesg. One default printk in intel8x0.c was there, so I have put my print before that line as well, but couldn't see anything. Apologies If my problem is very basic. I read on forums that best way to learn is to put printk's. Can anyone help me with where I am doing incorrectly, Am I supposed to do it this way or some other way? Thanks in advance -Vinod _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
