Since you have rebuilt alsa and confirmed it's working when you replaced all modules under /lib/modules/'uame -r'/kernel/sound, would you mind send me a list of all those (replaced) alsa modules in that directory (and subdirectories) so I can verify that they all build with the kernel...
Yes, I can send you the list of all alsa kernel modules, but as I said, it's only the snd-usb-audio.o module that is broken... i.e. I only have to replace that one to stop the freezups.
and when you have that kernel running, tell me wich one it is, and send me the output of lsmod (with the snd-usb-audio module loaded)
Well, there will be a lot, since I have three sound cards and three MIDI interfaces, each with an alsa sequencer and oss emulation... but the only ones needed for the Quattro are:
soundcore (not alsa)
snd (called acore in the alsa package)
snd-usb-midi
This would help me get a reference point to get alsa working again, and save me some time ...
How will you know when it's fixed?
BTW, alsa 0.9.6 doesn't build against the current kernel-source. You may need to use alsa CVS, which is not very different from 0.9.6, and will interact fine with the libalsa2-0.9.6 libraries.
I would like to get this fixed before MDK 9.2 ships....
That would be nice, but don't break yourself over it. This is pro audio hardware... not very common. Then again, it's our fault that it's broken, not alsa's fault. That and the fact that a novice would never get the Quattro working anyway, since hotplug loads the OSS module (usbaudio) first, which doesn't work at all with the Quattro.
