It would be even better if Red Hat would get off their asses and pitch
in to help, since the FC3 bug reports are flooding in. I don't remember
them ever posting ALSA patch one. Compare that to SuSE who have
contributed, well, most of it. Hmm, I wonder if the two are related...?
I am not surprised at all to find Red Hat/Fedora users constantly
wondering why their sound doesn't work, and that SuSE users never seem
have problems. If the distros want something as tricky as this to work
OOTB they have to make it a priority.
