Pre-requisites
- full kernel sources (see to distribution specific section)
- gcc (C compiler)
- autoconf (only necessary if you need to use gitcompile script)
Compilation commands
# ./configure # make # make install
Note: Example above will replace ALSA drivers for current kernel with drivers compiled from source.
Distribution specific
SUSE Linux/OpenSUSE
- install appropriate kernel-source rpm package
Red Hat Fedora
- install appropriate kernel-source rpm package
Fedora 8/9/10/11
- install appropriate kernel-devel rpm package only (ommit kernel-sources)!
- Instructions for Fedora 8+
Gentoo Linux
- Run emerge media-sound/alsa-driver to get the latest stable version.
Note: this driver is now disencouraged, Gentoo recently switched to using the in-kernel driver as its first choice!
- If you want the latest sources, use emerge --oneshot =media-sound/alsa-driver-9999 which will download the mercurial source tree, compile it and install it for you.
- Follow the Gentoo Linux ALSA Guide to install ALSA.
