After I submit my question to the mailing list, I start to deal with my problem with other people directly by mail, so in order for other people in the list to address the problem easier, I'm now sending to this list the summary of the configuration of APM and sound in my laptop. Hope to be useful. Mail 1: Sender Gerardo Amaya(me){jogegabsd@yahoo.com} Hi all I have an armada m300. I forgot about APM during my reinstalation process so now when I try to launch the apm I get the message: apm: can't open /dev/apm: Device not configured in the dmesg I have chip1: port 0x4000-0x400f at device 7.3 on pci0 HOw can I configure apm? Is this the device for APM? Also from dmesg I get the following info about sound chip2: port 0x3400-0x34ff irq 11 at device 8.0 on pci0 I try to run mpg123 and i get Can't open /dev/dsp! I also try with /dev/sound but no success HOw can I make the sound work Thank you Mail 2: sender: Greg Smith" Gerardo, Someone else can probably give you more details on your sound chip; but you could also look at various modules in /modules and load the right one at boot time. Did you go to /dev and do ./MAKEDEV snd0 already? Greg Mail 3: sender: Sam Thomas device apm0 at nexus? flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management in your kernel config and re-compile add device pcm to your kernel config, and recompile. make sure pnp os is "off" in your bios, and then #cd /dev #./MAKEDEV snd0 -- Sam Thomas Geek Mercenary mail 4: sender: Sam Thomas try adding apm_enable="YES" apmd_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and reboot. By this time sound was working, but APM doesn't, I recompile again and send the result. and this was the solution to the APM problem. mail 5: sender: me HEllo all again. I got my sound running with no problem. Now with APM I recompile my kernel with the device apm0 at nexus? disable flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management and I still got the same error /dev/apm device not configured I also try to run the apmd and it tells me that the /dev/apmctl is also not configured I don't know what could be the problem. Mail 6: sender: David Wolfskill The problem is that you specifically requested that APM be "disabled" -- note the "disable" word in the "device apm0" line. Cheers, david Problem solved. I hope this information help someone, as it help me. see you Gerardo Amaya P.S. also thanx to Pedro Miguel F. Custodio . __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
