[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#402595: alsa-utils: Warning dialogue about probing ISA cards is worded badly

Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.0.13-1
Severity: minor


After asking if alsaconf should probe for ISA cards, alsaconf displays a warning
"This could make you system unstable YES/NO" (or something similar)

This is not a quiz, and I doubt answering NO would make it less
true. It should probably be something like:

"This could make you system unstable. Continue? YES/NO"

or

"This could make you system unstable. CONTINUE/ABORT"

Regards, Thue
