ALSA

The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture is addressed by currently three different projects.

• The following three packages were derived from the alsa package below
  • alsa-core: Core ALSA functionality, currently only ALSA exceptions
  • alsa-pcm: audio signal input and output
  • alsa-seq: MIDI handling
• alsa: Complete ALSA support (audio signals and MIDI). The original darcs repository has been converted to a git repository, but there are some enhancements in a private darcs repository
• alsa-midi: ALSA sequencer support (aka MIDI), darcs repository, old project page, note that this package is no longer supported in favor of the first mentioned package collection.
