Hello,

I am trying to use the RTC timer with alsa 0.9 (cvs), but I don't find
any up to date  documentation. First of all, I noticed that snd-rtctimer
is not even compiled when you have rtc compiled as a module. I hope this
bug will be fixed soon.

I found the following modules.conf search the internet for snd-rtctimer:

options snd-timer snd_timer_limit=2
alias snd-timer-1 snd-rtctimer
options snd-seq snd_seq_default_timer_resolution=1000 snd_seq_default_timer=1

This doesn't work. The snd_seq_default_timer parameter doesn't exist anymore.
Instead, there are
snd_seq_default_timer_class, 
snd_seq_default_timer_sclass,
snd_seq_default_timer_card,
snd_seq_default_timer_device
and snd_seq_default_timer_subdevice

My question: how do I use these? Can you give me an example modules.conf
(I have a SB Live!, but I guess any card will do)

And, how can I check, once everything is working, that the sequencer is
indeed using the rtctimer (apart from hearing it)
