I'll be reviewing this and updating shortly.

The mmap method for driver communication is not supported in Raspbian at present. This has been solved thanks to [http://martinezjavier.wordpress.com/2013/04/27/mmap-support-for-raspberry-pi-bcm2835-alsa-driver/ Javier Martinez Canillas]. The preceeding link will take you to the details. It was dated 4/27/2013 at this writing. | The mmap method for driver communication is not supported in Raspbian at present.
