Thanks, will try to > workaround that. Well, the best would be to make alsa-driver backward compatible. Basically we need to patch headers in alsa-kernel tree to be binary-compatible with older versions, i.e. adjusting the fields in struct snd_pcm or so, and supply the compatible function, snd_card_new() in addition. This could be done automatically in alsa-driver build process, but I have little time to work on it...
