Re: please help a newbie, red hat 8 and cs4610

um, im not sure what you mean, beacause according to 
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php3?company=Cirrus+Logic&card=CS4610&chip=CS4610&module=cs46xx
the make command IS there (isnt it?)

that 8.0 supports Crystal Audio - SoundFusion (CS46xx Series) (which 
isn't necessarily to say it DOESN'T support it).

http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/ shows that ALSA supports CS4610, 
CS4612, CS4614, CS4615, CS4622, CS4624, CS4630

If you want to use ALSA, their installation instructions have an error:
betwen ./configure and ./make install, you need to do a ./make.
