Yep - just giving you a headsup.

I think that's trying to solve a different problem, isn't it? I was under the impression that snd-pcsp was a module for simulating a soundcard using the beeper speaker. It would indeed sound quite ugly. But this particular patch allows us to use the soundcard normally, with the beeper speaker routed through it - a common functionality on laptops that used to just work before snd-hda-intel came into common use. -- TimC Chairman: We continue with an afternoon of numerical stimulations. -- An astronomy talk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
