If it looks good, I'll pick it up. I'll make one now. The AC97 driver needs it anyway, later, plus some definitions are missing for PSC control.. also only used by the AC97 driver for now, but still probably quite important (or just hardcoded elsewhere). > BTW, did you figure out if the AC97 driver is being picked up by the > ALSA maintainers?

I'm not going to submit it to them until we can actually get sound out of the damn thing.. -- Matt Sealey Genesi, Manager, Developer Relations
