Many people installing gentoo for the first time and starting to get alsa to run just hop from one table with necessary commands to the next not reading the sentences between them. This causes much traffic in the forums and irc channels because people emerged alsa-driver with a 2.6 kernel and alsa doesn't compile or run. I would therefore suggest to mark this important sentence with the <warn> tag. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Fixed. Thanks for reporting!
