Please, read the GPL again, all versions.  GPLv3 in particular gives the

(this is required so they have standing in a court of law to bring the suit 
in the first place), to go after the thieves and cheats.  Generally they 
get compliance with the GPL, but there have also been some cases where the 
violators have been fined some quite decent sums of money.  You won't get 
much if anything, but rest assured, the thieves and cheats WILL be brought 
to heel, at no cost to you.

There are exceptions to that of course, does anyone here remember how much 
those 2 blackbox coders collected?

Thanks Gene.   I'm going to need to read that about 25 times before I get a full handle on it.  But, in a moment of panic here I am wondering if I am violating GPL by using some ALSA functions in my code?

Like many libraries, the ALSA library is released under the LGPL.
