Therefore few possibilities of regressions. I expected some tested-by tags or such, but OK, it's fine to merge without that. There are minor nitpicks, but they can be improved later. Now applied all patches. thanks, Takashi _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
