<title>Command explanations</title>
<para>&lt;kernel-version&gt; should be replaced with your kernel version,
including any EXTRAVERSION such as -ac1 or -ac2. If you are using a normal
kernel tarball, it will simply be the standard number (such as
2.4.19).</para>
<para><userinput>--with-sequencer=yes </userinput>: This tells the
alsa-driver package to build the sequencer modules for whichever soundcards
you are building for. Most people want them so you will usually want to
leave it set to yes.</para>
<para><userinput>--with-oss=yes </userinput>: This tells the package to
build the OSS/Free emulation modules. Again, most people want this so it's
probably best to stick with yes.</para>
<para><userinput>--with-isapnp=no </userinput>: Most sound cards these days
are PCI and so ISA Plug and Play support isn't needed. If you are using an
ISA soundcard, it's best to say yes here.</para>
<para><userinput>--with-cards=... </userinput>: You can tell the script just
to build the drivers for your particular sound card here. For full information
on which drivers are available see <userinput>./configure
--help</userinput>. If you aren't sure which chipset your soundcard uses,
have a look in <filename>CARDS-STATUS</filename> in the alsa-driver source
tree. If you want to build all drivers (for some reason) then
simply leave out the <userinput>--with-cards</userinput> statement
entirely.</para>
