<br />
===Pre-requisites===<br />
<br />
* full kernel sources (see to distribution specific section) <br />
* gcc (C compiler)<br />
* autoconf (only necessary if you need to use gitcompile script)<br />
<br />
==Compilation commands==<br />
<br />
# ./configure<br />
# make<br />
# make install<br />
<br />
Note: Example above will replace ALSA drivers for current kernel with drivers compiled from source.<br />
<br />
==Distribution specific==<br />
===SUSE Linux/OpenSUSE===<br />
: install appropriate kernel-source rpm package<br />
<br />
===Fedora 11/12===<br />
: Make sure you have the right <tt>kernel-devel</tt> package installed; probably the <tt>kernel-PAE-devel</tt> package for the kernel you are running and will be running after the next reboot. Further kernel sources are not necessary.<br />
<br />
===Gentoo Linux===<br />
: Run <tt>emerge media-sound/alsa-driver</tt> to get the latest stable version. <br />''Note:'' this driver is now disencouraged, Gentoo recently switched to using the in-kernel driver as its first choice!<br />
<br />
: If you want the latest sources, use <tt>emerge --oneshot =media-sound/alsa-driver-9999</tt> which will download the mercurial source tree, compile it and install it for you.<br />
<br />
: Follow the [http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml Gentoo Linux ALSA Guide] to install ALSA.</div>Kiilerixhttps://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php?title=Driver_Compilation&diff=2042Driver Compilation2009-12-08T22:35:47Z<p>Kiilerix: /* Fedora 8/9/10/11 */</p>
