= Getting the sources =

In addition to [/uniaud/browser browsing] the sources here, you can check out the
[/repos/uniaud sources]
with your favorite subversion client.

Keep in mind that, unlike [http://www.nongnu.org/cvs/ cvs], tags and branches are
ordinary directories in subversion.
With the typical subversion respository layout, it is
rather easy to checkout more than you
probably intend to.  To pull just the trunk version, use something like

{{{
mkdir uniaud32_workspace
cd uniaud32_workspace
svn checkout http://svn.netlabs.org/repos/uniaud/GPL/trunk trunk
}}}

and

{{{
mkdir uniaud16_workspace
cd uniaud16_workspace
svn checkout http://svn.netlabs.org/repos/uniaud/OCO/trunk trunk
}}}


To update your workspace with the current repository content, use

{{{
cd uniaud32_workspace\trunk
svn update
}}}

If you want commit access to the repository, contact Paul.

= Building the drivers =

Once you have the sources, [wiki:Building building] the uniaud drivers is relatively straight-forward. You will need the following development tools:  
 - [http://www.openwatcom.org OpenWatcom] 1.7a or later.
 - ilink 5.0 from IBM, or, if using wlink, you need lxlite to bring it down to size.
 - The DDK.
 - For ACPI builds, the [http://en.ecomstation.ru/projects/developer/?action=acpi ACPI toolkit].



= Debugging and such =

Since the drivers are under development, issues are expected.  See [DebuggingAndSuch debugging hints] for a guide to techniques and tools that can make solving them easier (we hope).

= Alsa Resync =

Uniaud derives some of its functionality from the [http://www.alsa.com Alsa] project.
This mean we periodically [AlsaResync resync] our sources with the latest ALSA sources.
This provide both aditional device support as well as defect fixes.

= Submitting Tickets =
