[hsflinux] Intel HDA sound card alsa driver with hsfmodem driver

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

we have released version 7.68.00.00 of the driver which can be 
downloaded at:

http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/downloads-license.php

This version contains recent ALSA code which will hopefully reduce the 
number of sound related problems while the HSF driver is installed.

We did also incorporate newer code provided by Conexant, this could 
improve the stability of the driver in a few cases. Support for the new 
Conexant Rainier PCI Express chipset was also added as well.

Finally, we recommend to all Ubuntu Gutsy users with HDA modems to try 
out this new version, we improved several HDA issues specifically 
related to this distribution.

Regards,


Jonathan
