HDSP 9652 Status Request

[Mark Knecht <markknecht@attbi.com>]

Hi,
   I'm just checking in to see what progress has been made on getting
this patch Paul did to support RME's new firmware for the HDSP series
into CVS. I've been literally down for 4-5 weeks now waiting for this. I
am completely unable to run Alsa at all without this patch.

   Can someone please provide an update on where all of this has
progressed to?

Thanks,
Mark

you cannot use the current ALSA driver with the new firmware.

i submitted a patch to handle the new firmware, but it has not been
put into CVS yet. meanwhile, thomas charbonnel has extended the work i
did and added some more stuff, and so we are working on a "mega-patch"
that fixes lots of issues with full HDSP support.

once thomas gets his tasklet problems fixed (for MIDI I/O without
affecting PCM latency), we'll submit the patch again.
