CVS stands for Concurrent Versioning System and is a software system used by software developer's to manage their source files, in this case, the alsa project stores their files in cvs, and you can check them out and use them. cvs is itself a piece of software though, so you can see how I might be confused. Why would a sound driver need cvs to install. What you need is to check out the cvs version of alsa. > Thank you for your help NP, glad I could. -- /g
