When I bought Samsung ARM Chromebook few months ago I had no idea about UCM profiles and burnt speakers (left is dead, right is resting). Then I learnt, took ones from ChromeOS and added them into Ubuntu so other users will be a bit more safe.
Later I had a discussion with some Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora developers about how to solve such problems and how to keep UCM profiles shared between distributions.
Liam Girdwood pointed me to not used git tree at ALSA Project server and finally I reminded myself about it.
The idea is to collect UCM profiles, keep them in one place and create alsa-ucm package in each distribution.
Thanks Marcin! This part of the Debian←→Ubuntu delta was something I wanted to bring up with upstream after the wheezy release.
I'll echo that thought, many thanks Marcin !
Would it make sense to put into alsa-lib.git? Since UCM itself was already integrated into alsa-lib and there are already tons of card-based config files in alsa-lib/src/conf/*, these also fit to a similar directory there, I think.
They could be in a separate repo, but UCM config is coupled with UCM code, so we may keep in the single repo.
It makes sense to me, fwiw.
Agreed, the initial intention of the separate repo was to do frequent releases that would be likely out of sync alsa-lib. But I think combining is the best way forward now. Takashi, please feel free to remove the other repo (I think it's mostly empty anyway).
