[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#232902: alsa-base: support for selecting HP Harmony driver missing

[Martin-Éric Racine]

Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.1-1
Severity: important

/lib/modules/2.6.2-pa3/kernel/sound/parisc/snd-harmony.ko

The absence of the "HP Harmony" sound chip driver selection only affects people on debian-hppa (PA-RISC
architecture), but it effectively makes configuration of ALSA on this platform needlessly difficult.
