[alsa-devel] Alsa-driver compile fail on Ubuntu powerpc

[nguyen tritai]

Hi all,

I'm trying to bring up audio on powerpc AMCC 440EPX board with the soundcard
Sound Blaster Audigy CA0106.
The board is runing Ubuntu 7.04.
I configured: ./configure --with-cards=ca0106 --with-sequencer=yes
--with-kernel=/usr/src/linux
Then I make and get issue:

The issue looks like an error in alsa-driver source code.
I searched the error information and It seems there're lots of people having
the same issue but no helpful answers.

Do anyone knows how to pass the issue?

Thanks,
