[PlanetCCRMA] jack - alsa problems continued

[dominic]

Hi There,

Thanks for the reply, 

Yep the firmware is installed i am running

alsa-firmware-1.0.8-1.rhfc3.ccrma
alsa-driver-1.0.8-3.rhfc3.ccrma
2.6.10-2.1.ll.rhfc3.ccrma

just had another look but found no more messages from hotplug

just this in again dmesg.

ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:04:00.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
Hammerfall-DSP: no Digiface or Multiface connected!
card initialization pending : waiting for firmware

This problem started when I deleted earlier alsa stuff following your
instructions to fix the apt-get issue a while back (i only did this
recently after warnings about 2 alsa modules being installed).

I am suspicious that I did something stupid to apt-get or deleted the
wrong thing!

thanks

Dominic
