This package contains the firmware binaries for each loader program
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
included in alsa-tools package. The firmware data can be used by each
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
ALSA firmware loader program like vxloader, or passed through the
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
hotplug firmware-loading mechanism.

HOTPLUG FIRMWARE LOADER SUPPORT
|
|

e67170 |
===============================
|

Packit |

|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
The recent ALSA driver supports the hotplug firmware loader.
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
As default, the package will install firmware data to the places for
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
both the old ALSA fw loader and the hotplug fw loader. To disable
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
the installation of old ALSA fw loader data (if both ALSA and hotplug
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
fw loaders are available), pass --disable-loader to configure.
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
Similarly, to disable the hotplug fw loader data, pass
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
--disable-hotplug option.
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
For the old ALSA fw loader, specify the same prefix option given to
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
the alsa-tools configure script, too, in order to keep the
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
installation directories consistent.
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
The default directory for hotplug firmware data files is /lib/firmware.
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
(or if existing /lib/hotplug/firmware or /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware are
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
found they are used)
|
|
Packit |
e67170 |
You can change to another path via --with-hotplug-dir option.
