Hello Phil, You can install Darkice from the Yast software manager or the Opensuse.org site without compiling; from an rpm. Check to see that you have the repositories you need also added from within the Software manager. Hope that helps.

I'm trying to compile Darkice under opensue 11.2. I'm using the darkice tar for v.1 When I try and compile Darkice, it isn't finding my alsa drivers. I'm compiling under 'su'.
