I have an onboard soundcard in my computer with the SiS 7012 chipset.

I've been having problems with the OSS driver playing Mp3s too fast and read that installing the ALSA drivers can fix this.

Following the advice of this page:

http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc...odule=intel8x0

I downloaded ALSA from CVS.

the driver compiled fine and installed no problem
the utils installed likewise without a flaw

however when trying to ./cvscompile the alsa-libs I got the following error:

rawmidi_virt.c: In function `_snd_rawmidi_virt_open':
rawmidi_virt.c:449: `pinfo' undeclared (first use in this function)
rawmidi_virt.c:449: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
rawmidi_virt.c:449: for each function it appears in.)
make[2]: *** [rawmidi_virt.lo] Error 1

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/knoppix/alsa/alsa-lib/src'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

can anyone explain what this means, and suggest a possible workaround for this?

thanks
