RME for e.g. is willing to talk to ALSA developers to fix the HDSPe AIO issues, if need be and I would have the abilities, they even are willing to help me, but they prefer to talk to ALSA developers, but I neither have the abilities, nor the money to pay somebody, so here we have a want of coders. That's the nature of unpayed FLOSS and nobody is to blame for that, most of us have not the time and money to do it. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
