Hi Levi: I just built Swami 0.9.0 without hitting the snag you got, so I'm no help there. I did find that Swami doesn't seem to be friendly towards ALSA 0.9.0rc6, I had to accept AUTO for the audio driver and OSS & /dev/midi00 for MIDI input. It didn't like /dev/snd/midiC0D0 or /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p at all. With the AUTO and OSS settings it works like a charm. Not that that's a fat lot of help for you... :( Btw, are you trying to build 0.9.0 or the pre1 version of Swami ?
