ALSA for Embedded Devices

ALSA for Embedded Devices

[postravi]

Hi, 
I am new to ALSA. I have got from the scratch system running on a PC
like system. Now I would like sound support in it. I am using the
2.6.8 flavor alright. But could you tell me is this a system where
ALSA can be loaded. Also I am not sure what the device nodes should
be, is it enough if I run the ./snddevices script? Also are there any
modules required for the ALSA to run on this kernel to provide sound
support. Any suggestions would be greatly helpful.
Thanks and regards,
Ravi.

Yes, ALSA is built in.

Yes.

The ALSA framework and the drivers can be compiled as modules or can
be compiled into the kernel, just like all the other drivers.
