Should I mark current version > as bad and continue or something else can be done? Hmm, so you say you can't boot a vanilla (unmodified) 2.6.34-rc4? Is your problem fixed in the current git HEAD? The bisect procedure I described shouldn't touch anything else than sound code, so SATA should be unaffected. Anyway, you can skip unbootable or uncompilable versions with $ git bisect skip HTH, Daniel _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
