This still create a problem from time to time. Seems like the index=X option is broken in the alsa driver (or maybie deprecated, remove, buggy, duno?). There is another way to fix the problem by using a /etc/asound.conf file (see http://alsa.opensrc.org/FAQ026) and removing the index=X entries from your mdoprobe.conf file Maybie the Fedora team should use the asound.conf configuration instead? > Takashi thnx! - vin - 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/
