Just send a fix patch to alsa-devel ML. Thanks. Whatever change addressed this apparently didn't end up where it should have. From the date, I'd expect that 3.14 would feature the fix, but the issue remains the same. The description is actually correct. The driver is only for hardware compatible with Intel chps. And, there are other HD-audio controllers that are incompatible with Intel and others. For example, we'll have a different driver for Tegra HD-audio controller. So your change will become incorrect sooner or later since there is no longer single "HD-audio driver". If you find better wording, please post the patch to alsa-devel ML instead of reopening this bug, as already suggested in comment 1. ML is more suitable place for such a discussion. I didn't say the description is strictly wrong. I don't see why my change would become incorrect. Feel free to have "for some HD-audio controllers" rather than "for HD-audio controllers". The wording I proposed is better, but don't expect a patch from me or anyone else if you won't address the issue anyway. |
