audacity alsa support
Last modified: 2006-02-15 18:03:24 UTC
audacity can and should be compiled with native ALSA support if you use -with-portaudio=v19 see also http://audacityteam.org/wiki/index.php?title=LinuxIssues
It was possible even before by changing of %define portaudio_v19 0 to %define portaudio_v19 1 in the spec file. Configure reports to be less stable but your URL reports that it's better. Changing the default to 1.
