    Hi,

    after some communications with Creative, I finally got a mergeable
    version of their X-Fi driver.  It's not my crappy hack but by genuine
    Creative :)

    The patch is now merged into sound-unstable GIT tree topic/ctxfi
    branch:
      git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-unstable-2.6.git

    The corresponding alsa-driver snapshot tarball is:
      ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/alsa-driver-unstable-snapshot.tar.gz

Woo, worked first go! :)

I have a "Titanium fata1ity Pro" (1102:000b/1102:0043), and compiled 
against Intrepid's current kernel (2.6.28-11).

I have only recently subscribed to the list and was just about to ask 
what the deal was with the X-Fi driver.

So mplayer, aplay and audacious all play things.  Clearly works 
perfectly then :)

Does alsa have some sort of test suite or similar that I can run the 
card through?

Oh, doesn't survive suspend/resume,

It's expected. PM isn't supported yet with this driver.

and doesn't appear to work at 24bit.

That's bad. How did you test it?

thanks,

Takashi
