Re: Trivial hdsp.c patch to support rev 50 cards

["Dan Nyborg" <nyborg@www.vertice.ca>]

hello,

tried playback of a mono file, to the same ends. yesterday in one instance, i
got around 45min of stereo playback before  a lock up.

also experienced a lock up in ardour yesterday, monitoring a single channel
and outputing it on another channel.

haven't tried recording anything to see if the same problem exists there. 
it's tough to test these things as i'm guaranteed a lock-up, ie: my drives
have to be fsck'd each time.

does anyone know of a way to safely debug this? can i catch the playback
thread before it pees on the floor, "NO! Geez hdsp, stream goes out the
urinal! ...hold that thing, damnit!!!" ?

dan.
