When emerging the alsa driver I used to set ALSA_CARDS="cs46xx,cs46xx-new-dsp" as stated in the ebuild's ChangeLog. This worked for me up to version 1.0.8-r2. But it seems alsa has changed the configure script, so since 1.0.8 it is seems to be necessary to specify the new-dsp - option with a new configure argument "--with-cards=cs46xx --with-card-options=cs46xx-new-dsp" instead of "--with-cards=cs46xx,cs46xx-new-dsp" as it was before. The ebuild should reflect this change. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. set ALSA_CARDS="cs46xx,cs46xx-new-dsp" in make.conf/environment 2. emerge =alsa-driver-1.0.8 Actual Results: emerge configures alsa driver with old (wrong) option: ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --with-oss --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux --with-build=/usr/src/linux --with-isapnp=yes --with-sequencer=yes --with-cards=cs46xx,cs46xx-new-dsp with the result: [...] checking for which soundcards to compile driver for... configure: error: Unknown soundcard cs46xx-new-dsp Expected Results: Configure the driver with ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --with-oss --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux --with-build=/usr/src/linux --with-isapnp=yes --with-sequencer=yes --with-cards=cs46xx --with-card-options=cs46xx-new-dsp and the compile normally Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86/2004.3, gcc-3.3.5, glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r0, 2.6.11-gentoo-r2 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-gentoo-r2 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) Processor Gentoo Base System version 1.6.9 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.5 [2.3.5 (#1, Mar 8 2005, 23:42:29)] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r5 sys-devel/automake: 1.8.5-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.2-r7 virtual/os-headers: 2.4.22-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage /usr/local/gentoo-de" SYNC="rsync://localhost/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 3dnow 3dnowex X a52 aac aalib acpi acpi4linux alsa apm arts avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth cdda cddb crypt css cups curl divx4linux dts dvb dvd emboss encode exif f77 faad fam ffmpeg flac font-server foomaticdb fortran freetype ftp gdbm gif gnome gpm gtk gtk2 hbci imagemagick imap imlib ipv6 irmc java jbig jce jpeg kde libg++ libwww lirc logitech-mouse lzw-tiff mad maildir matrox mikmod mjpeg mmx motif mp3 mpeg mpeg2 msn ncurses network nls ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdf pdflib perl php png python qt quicktime readline real samba sdl spell ssl stream svga tcltk tcpd tetex tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts usb v4l v4l2 vcd vdr vorbis wxwindows xine xml2 xmms xv xvid yv12 zlib linguas_de linguas_en" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS
version 1.0.8 should be marked stable now. use spaces instead of commas to separate entries in that ALSA_CARDS env variable. the ChangeLog entry you refer to was for alsa-driver-1.0.7-r2; please upgrade. marking invalid
