Hello Ben, I don't know why, but I needed the link. > As you noted, soundcore was renamed to snd. Nothing is missing and > there is no need to make a symbolic link.
I'm a greenhorn, so I don't know what is happening during kernel compilation, my impression is: During compilation not only the kernel sources are checked, but that it is also relevand on which machine or under which kernel you compile the new one. My soundcard works now, so I'm not interested to test, if the bug is still there. Is there chance that the firmware for yamaha soundcards will be included in the kernel source or that there will be a firmware package in the debian distribution?
