Hi,
I installed Ubuntu Feisty a few days ago and my sound card driver doesn't work
anymore. It was working perfectly before updating to Feisty but I'm not sure the
problem comes from the update since I was not using the last ALSA version but an
older one patched with a patch released by Tobin Davis a few months ago
(something else could have been changed in the ALSA source code since then) :

The driver (Developement release 1.0.14rc3) can detect my sound card but I can't
figure out what's wrong. Can anybody help me ?
