To this point you haven't asked me, or the numerous other people reporting problems to report something to alsa-devel. I'm 100% willing to do so, what info. can I give them to be the most helpful to them? Unfortunately a lot of the other people who reported problems probably aren't still watching this list. > Alan, it would be better to figure out why it was > not working on your > setup, because you did not really explain.
