Hello, Try the current (R25) Octane patches at http://www.linux-mips.org/~skylark/. The IOC3 support code has been in for a massive overhaul since the gentoo sources have been done by `K. Also, the PCI code is completely new. And ALSA supports many more features of the RAD1. I hope you will be pleasantly surprised, Stanislaw Skowronek --<=>-- "I wish for that night-time To last for a lifetime. The darkness around me Shores of a solar sea."
