Does ALSA support kernel 2.X.X?

Support for 2.0.x kernels was removed as of .4. If you must use a 2.0 kernel, use version .3.x or before of the ALSA driver. The ALSA supports kernels 2.2.3 and above, with the 2.3 kernels being somewhat experimental. 2.3 Does ALSA work with kernels compiled with SMP support Yes. The ‘configure’ script detects if your kernel is compiled for SMP operation, and compiles the driver accordingly.
