This might be a bit of a problematic choice... I usually suggest using=20 alsa-driver also if the in-kernel is "quicker" to manage... The reason is=20 that I still fear for alsa-lib/-driver differences, and there was at least = a=20 couple of issues with in-kernel emu10k1 drivers in the past that solved usi= ng=20 alsa-driver, as they got fixed first. Also, alsa-driver allows to have more updated drivers also using old 2.6=20 versions, and there are quite a bit of people that does not like to update= =20 the kernel if they don't have to (I think I'm one of them now, after the da= y=20 spent looking why the system got unstable -and finding out the swap space=20 lost somehow the signature), but might have issues with alsa that can be=20 solved with a simple alsa-driver. =46or the rest, probably is good to have virtuals and doc in-sync.. =2D-=20 Diego "Flameeyes" Petten=C3=B2 - http://dev.gentoo.org/~flameeyes/ Gentoo/ALT lead, Gentoo/FreeBSD, Video, AMD64, Sound, PAM, KDE --nextPart1389183.SY6SFuqECC Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBDU/Cle2h1+2mHVWMRAgDIAKCguVHObA7iWv5DsSw5DvbS0+CQhgCg2lv+ jVLixeTJ2lezd1WKGdUgqH0= =XnTS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1389183.SY6SFuqECC-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
