Aaaaahhh!  That was refreshing!  ;-)

You're welcome.  We are on the developer's list, so I will change the 
subject to reflect that there was a bug.  I was going to wait a day or 
two to see if anyone paid any attention, and then do it, but it won't 
hurt now.

These messages are harmless.  It's just information from the driver,
enabled only when you build it with CONFIG_SND_DEBUG_VERBOSE=y.

Re: Alsa-devel Digest, Vol 18, Issue 45

==============================================
Trying to figure out where to add this "model=macpro"
and it looks like it should be in a file called modprobe.conf or an options file under /etc/modprobe.d/

but I don't have (with my installation -- fedora {9} ) those files, do you have any input on this?

below are the only files I have.

/etc/modprobe.d/
 
anaconda   
blacklist-visor  
i915modeset
blacklist  
floppy-pnp       
modprobe.conf.dist

==============================================

You can create any file, typically, /etc/modprobe.d/sound or so.
Put the following line there

options snd-hda-intel model=macpro

Then reload the module, check the sysfs file
/sys/modules/snd_hda_intel/parameters/macpro to see whether the
specified option was really passed properly.
