ah well... not that then.

The last version I tried the back-port with was 2.2.18p20-ben1 (IIRC?) and
it worked then... since then I've been off-line...

So you might check the diffs between 2.2.18p17-20 and the final release.

It definitely worked built in and as module on the version named on my Linux
page... - having got caught out ;-) - I am now religious about testing my
stuff both built-in and as modules before posting it...

BTW:

I was not intending (when I do get back to it) - to work any more on 2.2 -
since there seems to be "0.5 * sqrt(damn_all)" chance that the back-port
would ever make it in to the 2.2.x kernel.

The intention is to work on things for 2.4/5/ALSA

- but if there's a few people who want a consolidated back-port for 2.2.18 -
I will do it... although it really needs to be hosted somewhere else if it
is going to be a long-term thing.

ciao,
Iain.
