I'm in the process of trying to get ALSA up and running on an RH9 machine. I haven't had much luck so far. The module won't load and complains about symbols not being there, which is strange since I built it against the kernel that's running on the machine. Before I expend anymore effort into th

I have no doubt that Mantis is a good system and I might even concede that it is superior to Bugzilla. But I prefer to reuse the Bugzilla system at kernel.org for these reasons: 1. Nobody has yet volunteered to setup and maintain Mantis or Bugzilla for ALSA purposes. 2. ALSA is closely related wi
