[linux-audio-user] Gentoo + Delta 10/10

[gantbd at gmail.com (Brian Gant)]

Greetings all.

I've recently come into the ownership of s Delta 10/10 and I was 
wondering if anyone had been able to get this puppy fully configured. I 
currently am able to see incoming signals on the 8 analog channels using 
envy24control, but that is about it.

Both aplay and arecord given me their own variation of the "missing file 
or directory" error when I try to use them, leading me to check the 
/proc/asound/ directory and I found that I only have pcm0p and pcm0c. 
This leads me to believe that there is a driver issue going on, but this 
is the first crack I've taken at doing any serious work with ALSA so I'm 
not quite sure.

I'm currently using kernel 2.6.11 with the Ken Colivas patchset, and I 
do have the realtime-lsm module installed and loaded. /proc/asound/cards 
shows both my SBLive and the Delta. My .asoundrc and /etc/modules.d/alsa 
are posted at the bottom.

Is there a better kernel to use, preferably under the portage tree? (not 
an absolute necessity)

Has anyone gotten this card fully functional under Gentoo?

I have a feeling that I'm pretty close, but I'm nearing the limits of 
what I can Google without asking.
