[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Alsa on IT2006 beta

Look for my earlier post to the list.  

Summary: the 770 kernel is linux-2.6.16-omap1 which does have generic
ALSA, but not specific support for the 770.   There was a patch posted
to the linux-omap-open-source list which was supposed to enable the
AIC23 ALSA driver for the 770.   I buillt a kernel with that patch and
installed it on my 770.    I did get it to make sound, but it was not
at the right speed, so I think the driver would need some work.    

As far I can tell, the 2.0 beta definitely does not provide ALSA
support for the built-in sound.
