If possible, I'd rather use a later version as I figure that it'll hopefully be less buggy. Anyhow, here is a sample of the errors I was getting when trying to build the driver. About halfway down: pdplus.c:3032: warning: #warning "This driver need to be ported to new hw_info" pdplus.c:3082: warning: #warning "This driver need to be ported to new hw_info" pdplus.c:3107: warning: #warning "This driver need to be ported to new hw_info" pdplus.c:3136: warning: #warning "The S/PDIF setup code needs to be rewritten." pdplus.c:3212: warning: #warning "This driver need to be ported to new hw_info" Some time later: from /usr/src/alsa-driver-0.9.0rc3/include/sound/driver.h:43, from ../alsa-kernel/core/hwdep.c:22, from hwdep.c:1: /usr/src/alsa-driver-0.9.0rc3/include/linux/isapnp.h:334: warning: `struct isapnp_card_id' declared inside parameter list /usr/src/alsa-driver-0.9.0rc3/include/linux/isapnp.h:334: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want. This last error repeats over and over and finally, the build would bomb out with: sound.c:41: `snd_hack_usb_set_interface' undeclared here (not in a function) sound.c:41: initializer element is not constant sound.c:41: (near initialization for `__ksymtab_snd_hack_usb_set_interface.value') make[1]: *** [sound.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/alsa-driver-0.9.0rc3/acore' make: *** [compile] Error 1 Looking at this more closely, it may be choking on the fact that I don't have USB on this machine and thus don't include USB support in my kernel. any ideas?
