RE: [gentoo-dev] Fw: The Gentoo ALSA Guide

["Riyad Kalla" <rsk@u.arizona.edu>]

I am pretty happy to be hearing this. Last time I tried to get ALSA
working on my Gentoo box (Gentoo 1.1, Athlon 2000+, nForce board) it
took me 3 days of recompiling and ripping out my hair before I finally
gave up.

Has anything drastic changed or am I just the dumbest person on earth?
My buddy could never get it working either... (that was with gentoo 1.1,
an Athlon 1900+ and an nForce board).

Best,
-Riyad
