Subject: [PATCH] TEST of patch proposed for i810 audio

Salut,

I sum up the different thread about i810_audio
(i'm only a user testing this driver)

Doug Ledford : release 0.11 in his site
(http://people.redhat.com/dledford/i810_audio.c.gz)
don't work : cat /vmlinuz > /dev/dsp freezes the kernel,
no sound played
No possibility to Alt-SysRq


Nathan Bryant : patch for 0.11
not tested

Andris Pavenis : other patch for 0.11 (seems to be better)
not tested

Doug Ledford : patch for 0.11, 0.11 becomes 0.12
don't work, see 0.11


Andris Pavenis : patch for 0.12, 0.12 becomes 0.12a
don't work, see 0.11, one difference : sound played
and then freeze.


My system
---------
Kernel : 2.4.16
Debian unstable

This looks fine to me. I've added it to my 0.12 driver, bumped the number
to 0.13, put it up on my web site
(http://people.redhat.com/dledford/i810_audio.c.gz) and if that solves
people's problems then that's what I'll send to Marcello in a day or so.

Thanks Nathan, I've been to busy to look into it the last little bit :-(
