[Alsa-user] ftp.alsa-project.org down?

[James S. <www...@gm...>]

My debian distro comes with a 2.6.26-2-686 kernel.  Which has version
1.0.17 of alsa.  I was hoping to just install the 1.0.23 version from
alsa-project.org.  But the links to download the sources don't appear
to work.  Is the ftp site down?  Is there some other way to get these
sources without extracting them from another more recent kernel?

wget -c ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.23.tar.bz2

I'm interested in doing this because jackd requires 1.0.18 or better
version(s) of alsa for alsa support (oss might actually work) if
compiled from sources.  And my current version of mplayer wont compile
with jack support against my current version of jackd.  aka dependency
hell in source mode.

Thanks,
