Summary:                    alsa-driver-1.0.7 compile error dealing with
'remap_page_range'
Description: 
Since I have a crappy OEM Dell SBLive! soundcard I can't use the emu10k1
module.  I need the emu10k1x module which is now supported in alsa but not
in any kernel.  I followed the instructions from
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ALSA_sound_mixer_aka_dmix .  But no matter
what it won't compile. I changed the ALSA_CARDS variable to other cards,
and just one card, and it won't work.

tiwai: Gentoo has been using configure.in from your cvs since you committed
it... but the version this user is using is old.

nsane457: please try alsa-driver-1.0.7-r3

I got it to compile effectively with a generic kernel configuration. It
seems that this is the only way.  Even if I configure the kernel with
sound support and/or alsa support and/or all the alsa options and drivers
it doesn't compile.  But if I use a generic kernel config offered by
"genkernel all" and the compile the alsa-driver it works. And after it
compiles the driver it seems to recompile correctly afterwards,  no matter
what config I used.  So for now I just used a generic config to compile
the kernel, compiled alsa-driver, erased kernel, erased modules (but kept
the alsa modules), recompiled kernel with my own config (same kernel type,
however) and it works. Thanx.
