1000 apologies for my noob-ness, but I'm still not getting it. I think I understand why it can't be expected to work as is, but I don't know how best to proceed.
That is, prepare both alsa-driver-build.git and sound.git trees in the same directory. Then run ./gitcompile without ALSAKERNELDIR.
Please help me understand what is meant by 'prepare'. Does this refer to a make step, or copying files from the appropriate kernel source, or... ? I haven't been able to clone sound.git either (I get "RPC failed - result=18" and 'protocol error: bad pack header', though alsa-driver-build clones just fine), so I'm assuming it's similar to kmirror.git? If alsa-driver-build is specific to 3.6 (Is that what was implied?), then what modifications would typically be required? And as stupid as this sounds, I'm not entirely sure I understand what is meant by "same directory"! alsa-driver-build and sound next to each other, or sound inside alsa-driver-build? Again, my profuse apologies for being the "weakest link"! Thank you for your patience…
