[alsa-devel] Compilation error

[Lars Bjørndal]

I get the following output while trying to compile the alsa driver on my
Fedora 12 system. It worked well with the previous kernel version.

# ./alsa-compile.sh --install
File environment.base is cached.
> cd /tmp/alsa-compile-script

alsa-driver tree alsa-driver-1.0.23.31.g2379a.273.g5b97d is present.
Reusing it.
Use './alsa-compile.sh --clean=alsa-driver' command to refetch and rebuild.
