Hello,
Last on my driver hit list is a intergrated PCI sound card. I've recompiled 
my kernel and its now showing up under /dev/pcm0. I've also done:

# cd /dev/; sh MAKEDEV snd0

To create the right device nodes, and that also went fine and I have a set 
of /dev/audio, /dev/{etc} nodes. I tried following an example I saw on this 
group by catting a wav file into the device node.

# cat some.wav > /dev/audio

I might have also done "cat some.wav | /dev/audio" I'm not sure, would that 
have made a difference? (probably...) It just made a horrible screeching 
noise, so evidently something is wrong, I tried playing a CD although I know 
why that didn't work I think.

Many thanks
Dominic Marks
