[19:13] <SEJeff_home> What would it take to build the Creative X-fi kernel module against Hardy/Intrepid/Jaunty kernels and put them in a ppa? Much like the kmod-* rpms in fedora.
[19:13] <dtchen> i'm working on that
[19:14] <SEJeff_home> dtchen, On this? http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2009-May/017332.html
[19:14] <dtchen> dkms-izing unstable and stable git snapshots, yes.
[19:14] <dtchen> it should be done by the end of UDS
[19:14] <SEJeff_home> dtchen, Fantastic! If you need any help let me know.
[19:14] <dtchen> well, there will be a call for testers, of course
[19:15] <SEJeff_home> Great, I can test Hardy and Jaunty with real hardware
[19:16] <SEJeff> Oh and will that be in the ubuntu-kernel ppa?
[19:20] <dtchen> no idea; that will be discussed at UDS
[19:22] <dtchen> it's a bit tricky, since alsa-driver is increasingly relying on additional hints that necessitate udev-extras and alsa-utils
[19:46] <SEJeff_home> dtchen, Understood. Please keep the world posted
[20:35] <dtchen> hmm, we should also bump the HDA buffer from 64 kB. at least openSUSE's and Fedora's kernels do so.
[20:35] <dtchen> $ cat /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/prealloc*
[20:35] <dtchen> 64
