Re: problem with ALSA 1.09 and 2.6 kernel (AGNULA/Demudi)

[Dave Phillips <dlphilp@linux-sound.org>]

Greetings:

  No helpful message in /var/log/syslog.

  From the reports of other users I've concluded that snd-virmidi is 
broken in 2.6.12. I added this line to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base :

install snd-virmidi modprobe --ignore-install snd-virmidi && 
/lib/alsa/modprobe-post-install snd-virmidi

  I ran update-modules and tried 'modprobe snd-virmidi' again but 
received the same error.

  If this is a known problem is there a patch for recompiling ALSA for 
the 2.6.12 kernel ?

Best regards,

dp
