I noticed similar bugs in other OSS sound drivers before, but it semes that very few people use devfs. Yesterday i checked with 0.9rc8d (previous tests with 0.9rc7) and the problem is still there. I semes to me that the file node index passes to the corresponding devfs_register() calls is static rather incremental or -1 for automatic allocation as it should be. Does this behave the same with any 2.5 kernel? I'm to much a coward to try 2.5, last time i did, i lost very important data. Kernel 2.4.20 + xfs Dist: Debian SID ALSA: 0.9rc8d ARCH: i386 Best Regards Manuel Jander. . __________________________________________________ Enviado via NewPlanet WebMail en embedded.cl ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf
