Testing a patch is quite easy. If you are an Ubuntu user, you can try the instructions athttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowtoand specifically the script mentioned in the section “Update to theLatest Version of ALSA”. With this script and the instructions from the wiki page,1. you can install all required packages that are needed to compilethe latest Alsa2. you can apply a new patch (you do this manually), recompile andtest without having to reboot.3. you can revert to the previous state The script downloads by default the followingftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/alsa-driver-snapshot.tar.gzI suppose this is the one you need with the latest version.
