I know the ALSA team don't support Creative's X-Fi drivers, but maybe someone could help with this issue:

I've managed to 'backport' Creative's recently GPL'd drivers to run on a CentOS4 kernel with ALSA 1.0.15 - the changes to the code were minor, but one thing I'm not sure about is, in ctpcm.c it has:

static int ct_pcm_timer_stop(struct ct_atc_pcm *apcm) { unsigned long flags;

     CTDPF("%s is called\n", __func__);

     spin_lock_irqsave(&apcm->timer_lock, flags);
     apcm->stop_timer = 1;
     del_timer(&apcm->timer);
     spin_unlock_irqrestore(&apcm->timer_lock, flags);

     try_to_del_timer_sync(&apcm->timer);

     return 0;

}

The CentOS4/RHEL4 2.6.9 kernel doesn't have try_to_del_timer_sync() - so, should I replace it with del_timer() or del_timer_sync() ?

I'm currently using del_timer_sync() - and the driver works (I get sound out the head phone jack) - is this OK?

Thanks

It should be ok, my friend used the similar change to complile driver for his kernel and it works so far.
