Subject:   Which /dev for "device pcm" in kernel?
Message-ID:  <20000710180337.A39923@localhost.localdomain>

I'm using a sound card that needs "device pcm" in the kernel. All is working
OK, except I don't know which /dev entry to use for audio programs.

I would think /dev/pcm0, but all the stuff I read has /dev/snd0. Which one?
(I've never been entirely clear on device making, other than tun.)

The card is an Aureal Vortex patched with the necessary files to work:

pci0: <PCI bus> on pcib0

[snip]

pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x11de, dev=0x6120) at 14.0 irq 10
pcm0: <Aureal Vortex 8830> port 0x1030-0x1037,0x1038-0x103f mem
      0xf4000000-0xf403ffff irq 9 at device 15.0 on pci0
