Hi,

alsa was demoted from 1.0.18 to 1.0.17 in the latest kernel packages. Could someone explain why?

Thanks!

If you follow fedora-devel-list, you'll notice there were some regressions in 1.0.18 that broke sound for some users. They decided to revert to 1.0.17 instead of waiting for 1.0.19 release.

Regards,

1.0.19 is already out.

I think that whatever I saw on fedora-devel was accompanied with a patch.
