True, xfree4.0.2 supports antialiased fonts and I did not use the |
| 9 |
freetype2 included in xfree becuase we already had a package |
| 10 |
for that. |

Yes ALSA support needs to be improved. |
| 27 |
Here is what I use together with devfs to get alsa running. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
/etc/modules.conf |
| 30 |
------------------------------- |
| 31 |
alias char-major-116 snd |
| 32 |
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-ens1371 |
| 33 |
alias char-major-14 soundcore |
| 34 |
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 |
| 35 |
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss |
| 36 |
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss |
| 37 |
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss |
| 38 |
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss |
| 39 |
options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1 snd_device_mode=0666 |
| 40 |
snd_device_gid=0 snd_device_uid=0 |
| 41 |
options snd-card-ens1371 snd_inde=0 snd_id=CARD_0 |
| 42 |
-------------------------------------------- |
| 43 |
Replace snd-card-ens1371 with your driver and it should work. |
| 44 |
Copy /etc/modules.conf to /etc/modules/2.4.1-pre8 |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Add this to |
| 47 |
/etc/rc.d/config/modules |
| 48 |
------------------------------- |
| 49 |
snd-card-ens1371 |
| 50 |
snd-pcm-oss |
| 51 |
snd-mixer-oss |
| 52 |
------------------------------- |
