Re: AlsaOnGateway9550



My kernel build was the culprit

"make-kpkg -config menu -rev Custom.0 kernel-image modules"

Seem the alsa-modules.deb file and the generated /etc/alsa/modutils/0.9
had the default sound card and not my

"snd-maestro3"


What can I do with the kernel build stuff so that I do not have to
remember to tweak the sound card in the config file?

thanks
