Yes, from our main site - http://www.alsa-project.org . > If so, then do I have to determine which particular version is > in the kernel and then source the same versioned lib/utils packages ?

ALSA library has a copy of kernel header files and it is backwards compatible with ALSA code 0.9 final (which is also in the 2.6 kernel tree). In other words, you can use 1.0 packages without any problems. > Is there some sane method to intergrate ALSA from CVS into whatever > is the latest 2.6 kernel source tree... how ? ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/kernel-patches . or (use BitKeeper): bk pull http://linux-sound.bkbits.net/linux-sound or simply copy files from the ALSA's alsa-kernel CVS module to relevant locations in the 2.6 kernel tree.
