Is using a 4-6 month old version of ALSA really that bad? Also if you know what you are doing you can mix bits between different FC releases and include rpms from rawhide when appropriate. It's not generally recommended that such things be done, but if you have unusual needs then it may be the best way to satisfy them. -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page
