Miller" , alsa-devel@lists.sourceforge.net List-Id: alsa-devel@alsa-project.org The Fedora Core should have some RPM with the ALSA header files. Since it is not installed, try looking in the CDs with whatever tool Fedora provides for searching the RPMS. From a quick look at the names of the RPMS I cannot find where the ALSA header files are but since I do not run Fedora I can't help you further. If it is nowhere then it is a problem/bug w/the Fedora and not your fault. Apostolos Frank W. Miller wrote: >Thanks for the reply... > >I probably need to be more specific here.
