Comment 25 for bug 131368

I think you might be over-reacting, just because l-u-m has the wrong compile flags doesn't mean you shouldn't deviate from upstream and provide an up-to-date driver. I have a gut feeling that with the latest driver out of ALSA repo, things could work out just fine (unless the ALSA repo is in a wild flux) for owners of newer hardware. Maybe a proper testing team could work this out?
