I'm not 100% sure, but if you haven't compiled sound support into your kernel you must be root for having sound, as then the sound modules are used instead with kldload. To load a module you have to be root. Maybe this is correct, or maybe not. I'm not, as I said in the beginning, 100% sure. :-) Best regards, Paul To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
