It is a port of the 2.5 OSS driver. Things are starting to work, but since this is my first major undertaking I'm looking for your comments. Ask early, ask often... At this point I expect playback to work to all possible outputs (there is some clipping on 16 bit formats). I have not been able to get recording output in a file, though it does seem to catch data. So I look for anything from coding style to design issues to spelling to 'it worked' to 'I get an error' to the-meaning-of-the-universe. Just keep the phasers on stun, please :) At: http://www.mph.eclipse.co.uk/pub/linux/dbri you'll find these files: - dbri.c Source code of the driver - Alsa.patch Patch against Alsa-driver 1.0.7rc1, without the driver code itself (pick up dbri.c and put it in alsa-kernel/sparc). - Alsa-build.patch Patched to make Alsa build for sparc drivers. This code is already in the current Alsa version, so you may not need it. - Linux-2.6.8.patch Patch against the Linux kernel (including the driver code). Will apply against other 2.6 kernels too.
