This is the first ALPHA release of The Linux Sound User's Guide. I am hoping that this will become one of the Linux Documentation Project books. The following files are included: sound-alpha-1.README this file sound-alpha-1.lsm Linux Software Map entry sound-alpha-1.ps.gz compressed PostScript file sound-alpha-1.dvi.gz compressed DVI file sound-alpha-1.tar.gz LaTeX source for document You can send the PostScript file to a printer to make a hardcopy or view it using Ghostview. All of the LaTeX source is included if you want to regenerate the output in some other format. I invite any comments on how to improve the document, or even a note of thanks if you found it useful.
