Why would you > want to replace the ALSA in the kernel with an old version? Because it is not an older version? "cat /proc/asound/version" for the 2.6.15 in kernel tree prints this: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.10rc3 That should be older than 1.0.10 final. (plus 1.0.10 has drivers that are not yet in the kernel tree AFAIK) -- Fernando - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
