I don't know how oss survive suspend, but you really should use alsa anyway. Cheers, -- Yves-Alexis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Do you think the patch is still needed? I don't think it'll apply to 4.4 anyway, so it'll need a refresh.

No you can drop it, but maybe we should more seriously deprecate the oss version. -- Guido -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
