I want to move to a more recent kernel so that I can get newer ALSA drivers.
Yes, what's in 2.6.21 sort of works but the sound is rather "barky" through OSS
and playing stuff through pure ALSA results in dropouts which were apparently
addressed in later versions. I haven't had any luck building more recent ALSA
drivers and some web references say you need at least 2.6.24 to do it.
Why I'm screwing around with the cavium stuff I found on the TS ftp site is
that I figure it's reasonably close to working on their hardware. But maybe
that's the wrong approach. The question I need answered is when you start from
a vanilla kernel source, what needs to be turned on or off so that it works on
a 7350? Clearly the menuconfig for 2.6.21 has a specific item for the
7350/7370.
If you or anyone else has a config file and/or patches that are known to work
on a 7350, I'd appreciate it.
