Bug 13740 – Misleading info in ALSA guide regarding cards_limit

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: [OLD] Docs-user

In the ALSA guide it says:
"Check the ALSA portion at the top of the file.  By adding this line you can 
specify the max number of soundcards you have (generally, just one)."

I just was installing the ALSA drivers and it appears this line has been added 
to the *bottom* of the file already.

#Set this to the correct number of cards.
options snd cards_limit=1

However, one of the options is missing, snd_major=116.  I don't know what that 
option does.
