Hi, I compiled the alsa libs using the following CC=arm-linux-gcc ./configure --target=arm-linux --host=i686-linux --prefix=/root/arm-alsa/ make make install changed the directory to alsa-utils and executed the following 1. CC=arm-linux-gcc ./configure --target=arm-linux --host=i686-linux --with-alsa-prefix=/root/arm-alsa --with-alsa-inc-prefix=/root/arm-alsa the configured failed with the same error checking for ALSA CFLAGS... -I/root/arm-alsa checking for ALSA LDFLAGS... -L/root/arm-alsa -lasound -lm -ldl -lpthread checking for libasound headers version >= 1.0.9... not present. configure: error: Sufficiently new version of libasound not found. 2.CC=arm-linux-gcc ./configure --target=arm-linux --host=i686-linux --with-alsa-prefix=/root/arm-alsa --with-alsa-inc-prefix=/root/arm-alsa/include he configured failed with the same error checking for ALSA CFLAGS... -I/root/arm-alsa/include checking for ALSA LDFLAGS... -L/root/arm-alsa -lasound -lm -ldl -lpthread checking for libasound headers version >= 1.0.9... found. checking for snd_ctl_open in -lasound... no configure: error: No linkable libasound was found. 3.CC=arm-linux-gcc ./configure --target=arm-linux --host=i686-linux --with-alsa-prefix=/root/arm-alsa/lib --with-alsa-inc-prefix=/root/arm-alsa/include it worked partially as it is not able to find libcurses and ncurses. I copied the required libraries and include file to the respective directories and it started configuring and compiling without any issue. Thank you very much for help. I tried the above option but somehow didn't work at that time and also my brain might have stalled during the process. Any way i still need to compile for PPC which should work with the same proceure.
