[alsa-devel] OT: applying patches (was: [PATCH ALSA HDA 1/1] Fix alc662_dac_nid and change 6stack-dig to 5stack-dig)

[Valerio tesei]

Sorry for the violation of nettiquete,

I think i misunderstood something, I already know how to patch, I was
thinking that "patch=something" was a parameter that I need to pass to
modprobe while loading snd-hda-intel.
Anyway thanks for your polite answer, my italian spirit comes up and made
this OT :)

Thanks,
V.
