IOhannes,

It turns out that --enable-alsa still does disable alsa. ./configure without the alsa flag gives two lines that weren't there when I did use the alsa flag:

yes ... alsa is... yes checking for snd_pcm_info in -lasound... yes

Dunno if this is specific to my system or not, but there you go. It works now. Thanks!

David

All,

Any idea why when I compile pd with --enable-alsa I don't actually get an ALSA option in the Media menu?

a) do you have the alsa-headers installed (libasound2-dev, alsa-devel or whatever) ? b) there used to be a bug in the configure-script (i think), which disabled alsa when enabling it, which should have been fixed; however, just run "./configure" (without enabling explicitly) and it should auto-detect whether it should use alsa.
