Well, then I'll hack the kernel to use the normal DMA allocation functions for ALSA instead of the non cache coherent ones and will wait until the ALSA core has been adapted for dma_mmap_coherent(). Or what would have to be done to get it working for SG buffers? Thanks! Gerhard -- Der GMX SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen!
