Re: alsactl and kernel 2.6.11 problems

[Javier <limado@gmail.com>]

Very thanks for the info Thomas, but I can not solve the problem doing 
that, The error stop, but I was still with out sound.
I have to compile Kernel 2.6.10 with all the same configuration of my 
.11 kernel and now works with out any problem. :S
I have to recreate the asound.stat with 2.6.10 too, but after that, 
works with out any problems.
Thanks again for your help, I will keep doing some test with .11 to see 
if I can make it works.


Cheers, Javier.
