New features for the Clara E Linux driver

The latest driver update introduces several technical improvements designed to streamline modern Linux environments:

  • MSI Support: By default, we now use Message Signaled Interrupts (MSI). Legacy interrupts remain supported, but MSIs have been the preferred method in modern systems for more than a decade and contribute to the reliable operation of your OS.
  • Kernel Compatibility: Removal of snd_printk() ensures full support for current distributions such as Debian 13 and Ubuntu 24.04 – and even RaspiOS benefits from this change.
  • Update Script: The revised script offers greater convenience for developers, especially on systems running Pipewire.

With these updates, the driver stays aligned with today’s Linux standards while making development and integration smoother.
