[Bug 26294] Re: Ubuntu is missing the alsa-firmware package

 

I just downloaded alsa-firmware 1.0.20 and checked it. Assuming the
copyright notices in the alsa-firmware aren't lying, I found the
following to be ok: aica, echoaudio, emi_26_62, hdsploader,
mixartloader, pcxhrloader, usx2yloader and vxloader. The other six is
beyond my legal knowledge to know whether they are ok or not. Probably
at least two of them are, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Among those that are ok, I assume at least echoaudio (Indigo I/O etc),
usx2yloader (tascam) and hdsploader (RME cards) are not that uncommon.
So a split, between at least eight in Ubuntu-restricted (or multiverse),
and the rest in Medibuntu, could be justified IMHO.

Btw, Fedora and OpenSuse both ship with alsa-firmware. If that matters.
