[ATrpms-devel] alsa

[Thomas Mueller]

Howdy,

I'm trying to run your suggested temporary fix for the alsa kernel 
module screwiness, and I've run into a small problem.  If I try to 
remove libasound2, apt wants to install a SMP kernel on my 
(unfortunately) single processor machine for some reason.  Is this 
something I need to worry about?

# rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.6.5-1.358
# apt-get remove libasound2
