Can someone please provide me with a step by step procedure for upgrading the ALSA module or point me to a decent one on the net? I'm a newb, never compiled kernels or modules. Need to upgrade my Debian Sarge to ALSA 1.0.8. I think it's in the kernel right now, v 1.0.4, not a module, how can I tell? Please help this newb, Thanks. /JP |

Remove the ALSA drivers from your kernel before you install the 1.0.8 driver, otherwise they will conflict. You should remove all files and directories except soundcode.ko from the sound directory[2]. /Mikael [1] /usr/share/doc/alsa-source/README.Debian [2] /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/sound/ |
