What they want to say is that they only support vanilla kernels and that modified ones may break. It is not a hard statement that it has to break with non-vanilla kernels. E.g. the kmdls at ATrpms show that alsa 1.0.13 works nicely with FC6 and EL5. > So, what to do? Wrt to possible incompatibilites between any repo report to both sides (all have mailing lists and bugzillas, some share even the same bugzilla instance). Otherwise you can just get alsa-lib and alsa-driver(-kmdl) and get your HDA working. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
