Victor, I'm compiling it from the tar.gz source. I wasn't aware that rpm's existed, but if they do, I'd imagine they were built with the standard Makefile options. Still, it's something to look into. I have /dev/audio and /dev/audio1, but perhaps that isn't useful for sfmike and it's coring on that.
